TOPIC: Pob's and Tabasco's

Pob's and Tabasco's 1 year, 9 months ago #321

Evening,

Getting to the point where i am going to pot on poblano's and tabasco's,

Any tip's on pot size was going to do 6inch for tab's and 7inch for pob's?

Ta,

Si

why just 1" difference?
just use the same pots for both varieties, i.e., the biggest.the roots will then have enough space to grow & you will end up with good plants.

I don't have much space! I guess tabasco's are a small plant.I need bigger pot's for my pob's tho i guess...........

i need the wisdom of the chilli wizard...

I'd listen to cherrybomb, he is something of a chilli wizard by the sound of it! (not that Steve isn't a chilli wizard you understand)!

Pot sizes - chillies seem to enjoy a tight-pot and can get moody if you stick a small plant in a large pot.

Both plants can grow to three feet or more in the ground, but should be fine in 6" pots - expect someting about 18" tall. We would typically use a 9" for the Pob, and 6" for the Tabasco.

Cheers, Steve.

Cheers, Simon.
