Spaceing in my garden

O

olesmokey

I learened from this years planting to space my plants farther apart as I put them 2 foot apart but was not enough room. Plants are doing great though but hard for me to see the peppers they so close together.So next year going to have to put them at least 3 to 3/12 feet apart. But all in all have a great looking bunch of peppers to dry, make salsa, powder and also people want to buy some as they cant get fresh bhut or nagas and want them.

Next season will be my first of growing in dirt. I am planning to grow my plants in rows so there'll be some room to walk. I hope I have learned how much space they need from growing them in containers several times.
 
I also have several in pots and alot in the ground the pots I can move but once in the ground no no and 2feet was way to close asmy peppers took off like gangbusters bushed out and made it hard for me to walk through

Yea thats a lil crowded.lol 3 ft might be the ticket.I would have to agree .Mine are all in pots but 2 ft is no where enough,,maybe 2 per plant.
 
if you've grown a certain type of chile before you'll know how far to space them apart.
but if you you havent grown them before, I'd go by the discription (height/width) as to how far apart to plant them.
no need to plant them ALL far apart if its not needed (because not all plants get huge) so no wasted space that a chile plant could go ;)
