I have 4 plants, this one is doing the best so far. How tall are we expecting these to get?

 

[chocolatescotchbonnet]

I'm guessing 12,13, or so.

I have never grown the LOT before, so I do not know what to expect. Tallest pepper plant I have had was a cayenne at about 7 feet or so.

Tallest pepper plant
Laura Liang of Irvine, California, grew a pepper plant, which when two years old in the Spring of 1999, reached a height of 4.87 m (16 ft).

Does anyone know if this is true?

After doing some research, I decided to do some pruning, topping, and lolly popping....

     Beautiful work, man! The time you've put into that plant is really paying off. All those flowers and pods you glued onto that hackberry tree really give the impression that it is actually a pepper plant. Well done!

    They are podding up very well.I plan on a 4 plant bush with lots of fruit to wet my whistle.

on a side note the plants were at the tag in the bottom pic a couple weeks ago.

Rain, rain, & more rain = my arch enemy! Will have to drain & refill with more nutes! I can't wait for a drought.

I have to drink a 6 pack of brews to get the courage to start hacking away at the lot!
Will be building a solo greenhouse soon......stay tuned!

I'm pretty sure it's a Large Orange Thai! 8).

 

[PaulS]

Wow the pods are huge aswell!
Hopefully they will weigh the plant down and give us a chance to catch up!

Hard to see much, between the background jungle and my pathetic photography skills, but passing 30", plant has a big trunk and looks super healthy, no pods yet.  The other plant which was strongest of the 2 before planting out has stalled.  Seems that maybe getting ripped out of the ground by a racoon early in life is a traumatic event for them.
