    I wouldn't bother, the plant will usually drop one or two of them if they're too close together

      They will be fine regardless of how many fruits they produce. The plant will grow along with the peppers to accommadate them. You of course have to pot them up accordingly to the growth of the plant. july+09+042.jpg (image)

        I usually keep potting my peppers into bigger pots but this year have left them in 6" pots and they are doing brilliantly. I have to water them at least every day and feed about every third day. At the moment they seem to be doing better than when I have given them room.

          I would leave them Braders. They'll sort it all out themselves.

          From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

            Hi

            The picture has nothing to do with potting them up according to the growth of the plant....am I missing something?

              The picture shows the plant with around 20 peppers on (clumped together). It was shown to alleviate the OP's question of..'I have a lot of peppers forming now...so clumped together...should I pinch a few off to give the others a chance..?
              If you think the picture is inappropriate for the thread, please feel free to delete it.

                Last year my peppers failed to turn colour so this year, on a few of the plants, I pinched out the tops - bit of an experiment really.
