My family will use frost cloth, it's essentially a big blanket you put over your gardens during winter nights. It has worked well for me but coldest nights only get to like 30F, so I don't know how it'd work in colder areas

Are you able to pot them up before moving them to your garden?

I had to put my seedlings in small pots so their roots have more room to develop. You definitely want to do something like this for your peppers. They take longer to mature and are sensitive little guys until they’re established.
