Default Need help controlling 7 foot Poblano's!

Was that too much?

These are Tiburon Poblano's. Love them for their heat, the way they turn red, and how they grow flat, which helps with roasting and peeling.

They are about five or six plants per Earthbox. This is not the first time I've struggled with this, but I need to go out of town for a few weeks, there are some amazing fruit and blossoms, and this is my favorite thing to have from the garden, with the possible exception of sugar snap peas.....and apricots...and figs.


So anyway, here's a few pix. I've seen folks tie tomato vines by string to overhead stuff. Could that work? Any examples you can link me to? No pulleys (sp?) please!
