I have five or six peppers of various types growing in large five gallon buckets. The plants seemed to really take off once I got them into a bigger container but they all seem to want to grow tall and don't really fill out. My Habenero is really bushy but my Anaheim, Jalapeno, another Jalapeno which I think might actually be Serrano. Short and stuby little peppers) all grow up, not out. Is this normal? I try to prune back the new growth from time to time to promote growth that is lower. Should I just let them grow up however they want? Also, because it's in a container and the roots can only grow out so far, would this affect it as well?
