| I grew some chili peppers and they are finally ripe but they are 1 3/4 inches. Is that normal or do they grow bigger? |

| Depends on the variety. There are probably 40 or more different varieties of 'chili peppers', some longer, others shorter. So which is it? As a general guideline, once ripe they don't get bigger. Dave |

| Looks just like the Thai Dragons I grew last year. Do they grow pointing up? |

| Depends on type of pepper, ammount of nutrients available to plant, room for roots (container size can affect this), watering, weed/other plant competition, ammount of light, etc. What kind is it and what were your growing conditions? |

| That is how big my Thai chilli peppers grow... I will add though this is my preferred chili to cook with.. In southeast asian countries (I am Indian) we use these a lot... they are small but they pack a good punch. |
