How do you grow your peppers? What types of peppers are you growing this year?
It may seem like a silly question, but is it OK to keep peppers in pots all throughout their growth? I'm a beginner gardener and grew some pepper plants in my garden this year, but I'd rather pot them next year if they can just hang out in there for their entire life cycle!
Once you plant these do you water them right away? I bought some and the lower leaves are starting to droop and yellow after 3 days. Soil is moist.
🙂 good video
I know I'm a year late for comments, but I'm growing 5 orange Habaneros, 15 Thai chili's, and 2 red ghost peppers. 1st time growing peppers (or any food type plants), hopefully they do good! Limited on resources, but using organic coconut coir for soil with expert gardener (I believe?) organic tomato fertilizer mixed with Epson salt bi-weekly. Full hot east Oregon sun (had several 90°+ days in a row right now in June). The Thai's seem to be growing slow, Ghosts are starting to bud, habs are pretty, but fairly small. Thais were started from seed too late. Am I gonna do ok from your experience, or is my soil not gonna be rich enough? Thanks!
Loved the video what are you using for bugs and aphids on pepper plants? I need help just started mind in lots and already have some peppers blooming but want to keep the bugs off.
When is the last time u seen your dink?
Nice Pepper Plants&Im a New Subscriber!!Im growing A number of different Peppers!!☺
Great video. New subscriber here.
thanks i am growing in pots need more tips
Thank you so much 👍👍👍
Eh man,I'm in NB,Canada,still too cold for outdoor plants here,I got some peppers started inside currently under three 100 Watt flourescent bulbs.
Just like that
You sure do a great job of growing the peppers, they look awesome 🙂
Great video as always and great channel!! First time growing anything. Currently have different Aji varieties and a few super hots growing double cup. They are indoors still under grow lights. I'm about to transplant them in grow bags to my balcony. After transplanting them….how much water do you give them the day that you transplant? Enough so that the water is leaking out the bottom of the container?
Glad to see someone else refreshing old potting mix.
Thank you for your video. I am new to gardening. I just received a bell pepper (not sure which color). Then I bought a purple basil and lavender. The lavender is to hopefully keep snails away. The basil will be indoors. It's mid April so I guess I am re-potting at the right time according to your video. 😇🙏
Cool vids and just checking your style out. 🤘 Biodynamic grower via beds & containers and any dang thing I can put organic media in and grow. 😁 What am I growing…Purple ghost scorpions, Pink Tigers, Black Jolokia, Gnarly Jolokia, ghosted Banana, Pimenta de Neyde, jigsaw, Black tongue scorpions, lilac cayennes, Purple & Orange cayennes, various Habs, Couple reaper crosses, Bhutlah scorpion and numerous others. So what was the brand name for the soil addendum used? Specifically the one with the high P value.
I have a ordinary plant pot but I sprinkled loads of seeds in that one pot I think it’s fine because I’ve done it before plants had fruits and it was nice bell peppers but I see loads of videos saying don’t crowd them like have several plants in one pot is that really such a bad thing ?, it doesn’t seem to harm the plants in my experience ?
You should air prune. Use pots with holes and weed gard inside to keep the soil from coming out. I use net cups and basket type pots even for my trees for bonsai.
Nice combination of additives for the transplant…I must try that! Thumbs up on the red Solo cups; that is how we do all of our first transplants and get some 2 foot growth and fruit in these before the Spring thaw. How do you peal back on nitrogen and feed potassium and phosphorous for the Summer fruit? I have given my neighbors seedlings of Congo reds that grow huge with no fruit. Is this a result of too much nitrogen and limited phosphorous? For our crop: Reapers, Chocolate Morugas, 7 pots, Seranos, Black Scorpion Tongue, Chile de Arbols, and Tabasco.
Do you have to have bigger size of the pot?
good vidio
Do you grow any peppers in ground? I need to grow all my peppers in pots because we only have 1 week of pepper growing weather. I need to keep them in my sunroom during the growing season and in the grow room during the winter. I do the same with tomatoes. This year I will have egg plant in pots as well. I guess eventually I will be trying a lot of warm season crops in pots. But having to use a sunroom and grow room to bring them to maturity, restricts the number I can grow.
I tried jalepenos and i did 3 in ine small pot and got small peppers. I live on a family beef farm and we use mineral licks that are like 18"-24" round. How many could i put in each pot?
We begin our peppers, tomatoes, eggplant etc. in potting soil with a little vermiculite, in small containers, then plant them in the garden after May 1…which gives us a week after our last possible frost. This year we are trying the 'no till' method…six to eight inches of hay, plants in the soil, and then 'snuggle' up the hay around them. Hopefully, very little weeding and if we get a drought like we did last year, maybe the hay will save us this year. Happy Gardening. Oh, we are growing only twelve kinds of peppers this year…it's his hobby!
Can u transplant peppers from the solo cup to a raised SI planter?
Hey you seem pretty knowledgeable about peppers. I recently bought some non GMO heirloom seed assortment and in the booklet it says that the jalapeno peppers I got are perennials. I never knew that peppers were perennial. Could they be?
Thank U so much 4 sharing this informative video.🐺🐺🐺
If u want a pretty potted plant we always grow red and green peppers and I use 7 and 10 gallon fabric pots and they make awesome patio trees/plants especially with some sweet potato plants around them. That bright red pepper plant with the lime green sweet potato leafs.. looks good together.
👍
I just planted the sweet pepper seeds. Where do you get your fertilizers?
Just found and subbed to your channel. I just started a yellow scotch bonnet. Deciding what else to grow.
