My cayenne are now around 14 inches and were 4 when I put them in about 4 weeks ago, but the birds eye and the sweet peppers have not moved since they were put in at the same time.

I have done nothing different with any of the plants and they are in the ground in the greenhouse in the same row.

Anaheim chillies and sweet banana peppers are in the 20 inch range and Jalapenos are 17 inch, raised in a conservatory. My plants are a bit behind other people's because I had to start mid March, but I'm glad to see the first flower buds on them. It will be some time before they open, but just to reach that stage I'm happy about since its my first year growing them :)

My tallest is only 90mm high and is currently in a plastic vending machine cup that potted them into, at what height would you move them on to 6" pots - and what can I do to assist their growth - will they respond to a comfrey tea feed once a week? as I'm in the process of brewing some up.

Mine are about a foot high and on the greenhouse staging in large pots.  This is the first time I've tried them like this, they are usually in the border soil, but ready about it on here, I thought it would give me more room for other stuff in the greenhouse.

My lemon drops that went in later are still only 3 ins high though

My pepper plants are about a 18" high - they are not galloping but they are looking fine.  Chilli plants on the other hand - most of the mild type and cayennes are budding and just starting to flower, the hot ones on the other hand are very slow at growing.
