I read where someone in Mexico got huge bulbs from them.
Plus what ever the volunteers from seeds were.
Plenty of water and fertilizer is the trick especially nitrogen.
This is why I planted lettuce in with them too.
The soil is super rich the peppers were dark green all summer long plus I re fertilized the other day.
