To answer a few questions before they are asked.....
I live in a weird neighborhood where space is very limited..
I spaced them (hopefully) far enough apart that they will grow good enough to produce a good amount of peppers.
I am also growing Bhut Jolokias, and Maruga Scorpions on the other side of my small patio...
And of course I have 1 Carolina Reaper...cause I live in the Carolinas so why not..it is flourishing....!!!!
 
Along with Cilantro and Thai Basil...
I make a salsa out of the peppers along with some other select ingredients, and if growing goes well this year, next year hopefully, my family and I will be in  a much larger home with plenty of room to GROW!!!
 
I have already killed one plant, trying to make them grow quicker...so now that  they are all in the sun and in the ground, I have mulched and fertilized carefully with an organic fertilizer...they  seem to be doing great so far..I have built a burlap shade over the bhuts, they seem  to not like the direct heat of the sun here....(learned that after burning a few leaves off) 
 
Constructive criticism is welcomed.
Thanks for looking.
Here is the other side along with the reaper that is in the pot.

welcome neighbor...
the plants look great. with the weather heating up, they should produce very soon.
 
can't believe I didn't get any Carolina Reapers... maybe next year.
 
You made good use of your limited space for sure, looks really good and the plants look great and happy. Just out of curiosity about how far did you space them apart?

They are spaced about 14" apart....
