One time I planted them too close and everything was hot. Thanks.
Any good links are appreciated also.
I plant them right next to each other without any problems. The genetic
material in the hot pepper's pollen isn't going to affect the fruit of
the sweet peppers -- though it will affect the plants that are grown
from the seeds.

I usualy plant mine so the stems are about a foot apart, and in the shape of bed I use I find the patern like a 5 on a dice works well.
I start them off in little polystyrene coffee cups and transplant them when they get the 4`th node, it works well for me
as for the cross polination, that`s something I`m hoping to try this year, maybe even get lucky an make my own breed of chili? (I`m allowed to dream). does anyone know about the viability of sross pollination and/or had any success with it?
all the best
