    I don't usually pinch out my peppers (I mainly grow chillies and they seem to branch OK on their own)

        I grow sweet peppers and I never pinch out the growing tips. I just pinch out flowers after the first three or four have set.

          You only need to pinch growing tips on tomatoes, runner beans, french beans (climbing varieties), squash...
          ...can't think of any others.

            If you pinch out the tips, it will delay fruiting.
