Baker's?

@Meinchoh if you mean my pic, sorry, wrong type of peppers :liar

: Those are pics of Black Pepper. I saw a hot pepper farm in Vietnam where they copied that method and they really did have monsters (tall and skinny). But still trying to find that source again...

I especially like the drawings lol. I am looking for the guys post, his handle at the time was guano tea, but cant seem to locate the reference to the giant. Not even sure if it would be appropriate to post it in a Chile forum lol.

I will stick with the stout bushes rather the tall lanky plants..... Peppers are bushes not trees.

Voodoo 6 · Jun 16, 2016

No reason not to have both.

Of course there is. I can't rock a moustache like the guy in the photo. So no tall lanky pepper plants.

But, if you CAN rock a mustachio magnifico... then we should be OK, right?

Nothing like having to climb a tree for a ghost pepper. Or maybe a reaper, that way when you fall 20ft to your death.
