Also, stand the pots in saucers of water to stop them drying out while you're at work. If they still dry out in a day, perhaps they need bigger pots (ie more compost, less drying out) |
Mind you sometimes the problem isn't that the compost is wet, but just that the leaves can't take up enough water to replace what is lost through transpiration - i.e. they may recover overnight when its cooler.
If dry compost isn't the problem and it is purely the heat - could you try moving them a little bit away from the window if the forecast is for sun, or even leave them outside? I guess it depends on the variety but certainly mine (marconi sweet peppers) are outdoors full time and are thriving.
