Amount of peppers in earthtainer

gturmindright · April 2, 2014

I have some Jimmy Nardello and King of the North seedlings. How many can I fit in one 31 gal earthtainer? I was going to do two Kings and one Jimmy N. but I read somewhere you can fit four peppers in an earthtainer. What do you think?

I had 5 in my 18 Gallon totes and they did just fine, so 4 in a 31 Gallon should be amazing. Of course, you could put in more than 4 but you will probably get less production from each plant. Pepper plants in earthtainers = WIN!

Good luck,

I grew 4 in a 26 gallon container and had great yields of banana peppers avg about 2-3 gallons of peppers every 3-4 days.
