Matt,

Pretty simple system.  I garden in containers (about 125) in a woods.  4' wide weedgard, containers on top, heavy mulch in the summer to keep the ground cooler, t-posts at outer edges of containers & clothesline wire run from end to end at about 3' and 5' heights.  

Heres part of my mess with large file first and same picture small file second:

As to the fatalis I don't know as have never grown them.    Perhaps my seed isn't true.  Will address this in a future post.

JohnT -- 

Very nice photos -- I've never grown Lemon Drop or Aji Limon, but I think I
would like to now.  I had a couple of questions, though -- first, I have
fatallis from the USDA that look almost identical to your Aji Limon.  Are the
two close cousins?  Is it possible that my seed isn't "true"?

Next, in the picture of your Lemon Drop plant, it looks like you have many
other chile plants in the background with some sort of system rigged up to
support the plants.  Would you mind elaborating on your method?

Thanks.

Matt
