I am now 3 years into this container gardening so I am still learning all the time and still upgrading what I have. I want to go to a #7 tall pot. I was wondering in the USA has some #7 tall pots they would part with? I have a lot of 6 inch and then a few sizes up like 2,3, and 4 that I would ship to anyone. They are fairly light so I can't see where it would cost that much.
I am hoping that a #7 tall is plenty big enough for my pepper plants. Though I think a #4 is big enough for some types of Thai pepper.
Any thoughts on all of this?.....

For annua and smaller peppers five gallons are enough. You can sometimes get those cheap from restaurants. Thai hot only gets about 6 inches tall, it can go in an even smaller 1 gallon pot.
For bigger, longer lived peppers, I go with my standard 18 gallon containers. A super chili, Hawaiian chili, and some Thai peppers are really big plants that live multiple years so they need bigger pots.
