| Hi all,
I'm trying to grow Pasilla Bajio peppers in containers this year. I saved the seeds from peppers I grew in the garden last summer. Any advice? Cheers!

| Use the 5-1-1, pine/fir bark fines, perlite and garden soil mix for your containers. Containers should be at least three gallon up to 7 gallon. The bigger the better. Check out the "container Gardening" forum also. Bruce |

| I am growing this pepper for the first time this year. Though, I am going to have mine in the garden rather than a container. I was worried that this may be a pretty big plant, that's why I opted for garden space. In a container, as mentioned - the bigger the better (to a point). I would also be prepared to support it somehow should the need arise. When I have grown Poblanos in pots, I have used the cheap tomato cages and neighboring pots to help keep the plant supported or the entire pot from blowing over. I guess I should also mention that I usually stake my larger pepper plants that are in the ground. |

| Grew them last year in pots. Nothing special about them, treated them the same as all the others. They do get big, so a large pot is recommended and you will probably have to support it as fruit grows. John |
