Pictures of massive pepper plants...

Has anyone grown plants larger than 3 feet? I really just want to look at pictures while at work. As soon as mine get this big I will reciprocate.

Bhuts in front of a 6' fence. They ended up 6 1/2ft by seasons end. Pic was taken at eye level, the fence is slightly uphill from them...

Most should grow past 3' easily the first year.

Here are a few of my big ones from years past.

yup...5ers...used some 10s last year for 2nd year plants and will use a couple of 25s this year for the 3rd year scorps...not looking for huge growth in height, rather compact bushy plants the produce tons...the more nodes, the more pods...
 
Can't really hold a candle to most of these guys yet, but even as a novice grower several of my plants were taller than 4 feet, and my Rocotos hit almost 9 feet by the end of their first year. This photo is after 6 months of growth, the post stands at 5 feet tall.

Even though I know my growing season is going to be shortened this year, I'm curious to see how big it gets.
 
Here's a Bishops Crown I started last year, just never got around to potting it up. Can't stand the thought of killing it so I add water every now and then and it just keeps right on going. I am going to pot it up this year just because I want to see the roots. It's over four feet tall.

That's crazy! hahahaha, Nutes? That thing looks like a bean vine!

Love the random twine support system! I had a couple times last year when I was only home a few days at a time...my tomatoes were getting out of control and I had to fly right back out the next day...so Duct Tape to the rescue! Looked like your twine system with a little extra redneck added for good measure!
 
Thank you AJ, Geist and stc3248. It has a few wooden ka-bob sticks holding it up now. It is time to add another one though. Haven't seen a bud yet so no pods harvested. It's just a fun thing.
