I too hate frames.  On topic -  I've decided to do most of my pepper
gardening in pots from now on.  Even though my bed garden is only 30 feet
from the back door, I'm finding that I have much better control over my
plants if they are potted and sitting on the deck.  My potted habs are
several inches taller than the ones in the bed.  I guess the TLC may come a
little easier when I'm immediately surround by El Grande's munificence.

Kevin,
this could very well be due to the fact that in your pots the soil gets
warmer.
This has been shown to accelerate growth in plants (I'm not sure where it
was shown, so you'll juts have to believe me).
