Default Growing Peppers in a Greenhouse Border

I have never really had any success growing peppers, mind you, I haven't
really made any effort beyond potting them on to 6 inch pots and then
forgetting them.
This year I am determined to look after them.
I have planted 5 up in the greenhouse border after digging the soil over &
giving it a liberal dose of blood fish & bone.
Any advise regarding the support, cultivation would be appreciated.

It's too early unless the greenhouse is heated, by about 2 months I'd say.

Greenhouse is heated - minimum temp 63F at night.
Growing alongside tomatoes that are now 3ft on 3rd truss.

How do you achieve that?

Whereabouts are you? Is it free standing or lean-to?

Peppers take the same conditions as tomatoes, could be placed in the
same rows. Sun, water and soil should do it.
