Default Pepper Plants WIlting During the Day

All my peeper plants wilt during the heat of the day, and come
perk back up after dusk the wee hours of the morning. The wilting
I fear keeps them from getting enough sun, and the stems of the
peppers don't seem to be as strong as they should be.


Is this normal, and if not, is there a way to prevent this?

I don't know if it's "normal" but I know that my peppers do that as well,
even if just watered.

Too much sun also burns the bell types; the hot peppers are unaffected.
