I always am amazed at how productive peppers can be when you give them some love. This is in a 1 gallon growbag.

But why? You can see in this picture they do better in a larger container.

how can you do this? their leaves also look healthy.. do you have any tips? mine has bigger pot than you but the growth is very slow and leaves kept falling down even before widened like that..

I have plants that I believe need to be in containers bigger than 5 gallons even though they appear to be fine. My reasoning is that while they have grown larger than I could have imagined in my first year, some wilt and need water more desperately than plants that are able to retain more water/moisture in the soil from a day-to-day basis.

There’s nothing wrong with growing in small containers. Everyone has a reason of their own: Space, financial, poor inground soil, speed of production, etc. currently i have 200 inground, 150 in pots 5gal and above and then about 75 in 1gal pots. They all are doing well and each need their special attention! The 1gal is mostly for crossing, production speed and overwintering in green house(space) .

The plants are lucky to grow in a safe environment. Defies all logic I guess, but that’s what nature does-the unexpected.
They look great and must be happy to produce all that fruit!

I use 3 gallons outside and still get big plants it’s doable

This is impressive. To add to difficulty, its in a growbag with no saucer. How often did you have to water this? I’ve done this with a tomato plant, but I had to use a saucer with standing water because it would get dehydrated during the day while I was at work.
