Welcome, Rob, you have lots of company! I live in an apartment building, and I grow chiles on the roof, very successfully. After years of doing different chiles, I have settled on habs and Thai dragons. They both grow well in pots, and produce lots of fruit. Have fun! You did not say where you are located, I grow mine in British Columbia.
