So I'm guessing I need to prune a few leaves off? It is a small pot since we haven't repotted them since buying them from the garden center. But as the other comments have already said, these are ornamental so they're that size I guess, but I'm willing to try anything and see if they grow somewhat bigger, if not, then I'll still be happy with it, just would need more chili varieties in the future ๐๐ฝ
At this point, nothing you can do, and the leaves are what you leave. When the plant starts to flower, you chose what you want and trim it up.
