Nice pics. We grew some of our best peppers in pots, they love lots of water. Our pots were were about 20 or 30 gallon ones. Early on when the plants were smaller we could grow green onions and lettuce around them and harvest as the plants got bigger.
I was really amazed at how things grew that season, being a drought year, but looking back, it totally makes sense.
There was literally NO disease issues with those plants, either.
Hot and Dry is an awesome way to grow peppers and tomatoes and cukes, for sure - as long as we can get them adequate water.
And I would sell my kid for a 20 gallon nursery pot, LOL!
