Chilli plant pots

[AmateurOne]

Newbie question again.

Is there a recommended pot size for the final potting up of Chillis?

Watch a video on YouTube of the Dorset Naga in a massive pot so hoping I don't need room for that size.

Hi AO, yes its been shown that if you put them into a hooge pot then they will do what you have seen, howver, for us hammer chewers, an MFB will suffice if your just after chillis for personal use , if you want them to go bigger, up the pot size.
all down to your needs, wishes, enjoy .

That would be the sea springs seeds video then very good video. I do grow my Dorset naga in a 100+ lt pot because of that video. I do like to go big but my minimum pot size for chillies is 7lt.

By the way I'm nuts and this years Dorset naga is named Monty

Yes that's the video. Over 2000 chillis off one plant. I've bought a fee varieties off them and all growing well. Should I stick to MFB size or go large on a fee?

It's entirely up to you . If you've got the space to put a few in bigger pots, go for it.
What varieties have you got? Not all chillies benefit from really big pots ( but most do ).
