 "H&N> the local herb farm had 6 little pepper plants and a tomato when I
 "H&N> went today to finally get some herbs to plant...they were marked down
 "H&N> as they are "stressed"... they suggested that I get them in the ground
 "H&N> and fertilize asap...

 "H&N> I was hoping to grow in containers...should I not do that because of
 "H&N> "stress"?   If I can, what size and how should I prep the containers?
 "H&N> Each plant has lots of fruit on it...

I lack a yard/garden so I am limited to containers too. I generally water
the plants well and let them rest indoors in good sunlight for two or
three days, then transplant into larger containers and water again.
I fertilize them the third time I water them. This is more intuitive
than scientific but it seems to work.
