Hey Chilichump! Extremely informative video on cross-pollination. Some names I was thinking of: lemiperri, lemon eye drop (lemon drop paired with bird's eye), LemonHot, Peri Peri Lemon (sounds like very very lemon), Perlemon. As maybe a suggestion we could also wait and see what they look, smell, and taste like before we name them. Looking forward to the new content!
Thanks for the video. It's rare to find one that has so much clear info without wasting the viewer's time. It's also nice to hear a South African voice again as an expat :) I'd call it the drop kick.
You gotta have a ‘chump chilli’ at some point.... Piri piri + jalapeno (polinate jalapeño) an hopefully end up with large thick skin jalapiri peppers for braai poppers ;-)
Peri Drop if it is closer to Peri Peri, or Lemon Peri if it is closer to a Lemon Drop. Edit, if you get the golden colour of the Lemon drop then Golden Peri might be interesting
@chillichump Glad you're keeping well. I accidentally crossed a pepper with a chilli, and this year ended up with a pepper which is more chilli shaped with heat with it. Never knew this was possible. Another great Tube.
I'm new to this, would mind explaining to me what the biological boundaries are, like can I just go pollinate whatever I want with whatever I want? Or does have to be in the same group, family, genome, like what's the deal? thanks
Im totally blown away. Our chilli season in AUS is starting. I will look at your chart and study some more. Golden Peri, wow, that would be something. Btw, love the video closeups. The pollen from the brush floating away.
I crossed Dragon x Douglah with Yellow Habanero last year. This year i used the resulting seeds, plants grew and some fruits are developing already, can´t wait for the results!
aha - I honestly thought that once you cross-polinated a flower that you would end up with a different fruit on the host plant, you teach me something each video! Thanks mate!
I've watched this vid a few times and wondered what was dancing around in the background, just worked out its a 40th birthday balloon 😆 great vid btw 👌
Loved your video I've been thinking about doing that for a while with flowers now I know how to do it with the flowers I think it would be the same process however I call it new pepper patience because it took a lot for you to do that have a great holiday
FLIP!!! I don't.. i really don't understand people disliking a vid like this.. One of life's miseries, i mean mysteries. Anyway thank you for some of the science as well. So helpful.
This was awesome! I learned so much from this video! Have to try this on my ghost pepper plant. Maybe the ghost crossed with one of my habeneros? Should be interesting....
Leri (Larry) Could you do a continuation of this? how to cultivate seeds from yours peppers and more information on continued breeding to stabilize. This video has me very interested in trying something similar. I would love to take the bold flavor of a ghost pepper and drop the heat to something similar to a Serrano.
@@ChilliChump Hey, Just found your channel. Thanks a bunch for your information. I tried starting my first fermented batch today after watching your videos and a few others. Went to the local green houses and bought a bag of "chilies", tossed in some fresh green onion, garlic and a few other seasonings. Do you make your own vinegar as well for your sauces, maybe a fruit based vinegar?
@@th3count I do make my own vinegar, but I don't use it in my sauces at the moment. I need to use vinegars that will give me a predictable result, and the flavours would vary quite a bit with a home made vinegar. It's no problem to use it for your own sauces though if you aren't worried about the sauce tasting the same every time!
Great informative videos as always! I appreciate the time and effort you put into your work! Keep up the great work! Looking forward to seeing the cross !
Uhhh... the chili Community has been complaining about his videos for over a year everything he's shown you you need to erase from your knowledge. Has been cross-pollinating through every fucking video. The fact that we just called him out and now he's doing the video on Cross polinizacion proves the fact he knows nothing please educate yourself before believing in the internet
Very good tutorial. Planning to try cross pollinating some super hots with tabasco and C. eximium plants this summer. Going to be interesting to see the Piri Piri x Lemon Drop update. Thumb up!
New subcriber, been watching for a while I have five different cultivars of jalapeño, Freano peppers, Serrano peppers, and two super hots, one Ghost and one Ghor-Pion it's a cross between Ghost pepper and Butch T Trinidad Scorpion. Looking forward to grow more super hots next year, you've inspired me to make my own hot sauce🔥🔥 with great success. I've crossbread cannabis before and you are spot on with your technic thanks and have a blessed day 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the content. Your videos have been extremely helpful. As for the Pepper, well, I just couldn't venture a guess until I see you try a product of your F1. Also, Happy Birthday, if that was your ballon twirling in the wind at the end.
I have been working on two crosses for about 3 years, trying to stabilize them and preserve the best varieties. They were both accidental crosses, one interspecies (frutescens (tabasco) x chinense (habanero)) and one not (Fish annuum x Bulgarian Carrot annuum). The F1 generation is a predictable cross and both showed great merit. The F2-F3 generations are chaos, with all sorts of crazy genetic diversity for you to select from. I'm in the F3-F4 region now where I'm starting to try to stabilize the best ones. I would recommend reserving names for when you see what the pods of the descendant plants are actually like, including color, heat level, shape, and any other interesting characteristics. Until then, mechanistic names based on what plot and bush they grew from are more helpful.
This is gonna be awesome. I can’t think of a name. Use your name, it’s your baby. You really got me into peppers 🌶 I’m fermenting some Tabasco with Cayenne, thyme garlic right now. I’ve just ordered my bottles. Hehe⚗️Thank you for my new hobby.
The Lemon Nandos 🤣🤣 Also no need to wait till next year. I would get a cheap grow light online (~£40) and plant about 20 in small pots under it. You’ll see a wide variety of phenotypes plus you’ll get to grow fresh peppers all year round. Over the winter, observe each plant, select the phenotypes you like, and plant those out next summer. That way you don’t waste precious space in your garden!
Can you cross just about any peppers? I love the Tabasco pepper plant and I would love to see a hotter and maybe even better looking peppers. I think this could be an amazing project to do in a indoor hydroponic system because it can be growing year round. Your video has me really wanting to cross my Tabasco with something else. Hopefully I can get a indoor hydroponic system and a pepper I want to mix with next year. Thank you so much for this video. It is very inspiring! Also with a indoor hydro system you could make it where there is zero chance unwanted cross pollination. Keep up the great videos and I cant way to see them next year.
If you look at the chart I popped up in the video you can get an idea of which types can cross with other types. There are some that don't cross too easily...
Is it not better to properly cover the pollinated stigma adequately to prevent pollen from other source pollinating? You have explained the technique of emasculation of the stamen beautifully well thanks a lot.
Hi- not to put a dampener on things but you might think of covering over the pollinated flower - there is a chance that pollen from that plant or others get into the mix - the stronger Jean will take over - I hope you have done it - I would cover the flower after this with your mesh bag just to stop other pollen contaminating - just a suggestion
Chillichump ok great that should work - you didn't show that in the video . I thought it was strange as you cover them to save seeds . Ok forget what I said . Earlier
Also, a great method to prevent the stigma from getting pollinated by others after manual pollination is to cover it with little organza bags or something similar 🙂
Lemon Peri and Peri Drop. Curious question, here you used the pollen from the lemon drop and put it onto the peri peri, would you also take pollen from the peri peri and put it onto the lemon drop then grow out seeds from both pods to see if one lot turns out to take on different characteristics from the other? Great video as always.
i just did that last week with my komodo dragon (orange) and fatalii whites.. used the fatalii pollen on a komodo flower.. looking forward how it turns out, as i'd prefer to get a white komodo dragon pepper :)
Have you ever seen early signs in young plants of the cross pollination? Maybe in things such as different stem color or leaf 🍃 shape or size. I'm just curious cause I have one of several of the same variety that looks a bit different than the others. All have been managed in the same way from seed to now but this one seems to be different in color on the stem and has much larger leaves.
I love your videos. Name for this heterozygot if ripens yellow: African canary. I guessed it right at the beginning of the video , on of the parent will be your peri-peri.
I see that some people cover the newly pollinated flower with a small zip lock baggy which I’m assuming is to prevent unwanted pollen from being collected before the pepper begins to form . I noticed you didn’t do that so I’m questioning if I should cover it or not with having other pepper varieties growing in my indoor garden ?
Once the flower is pollinated...it can't get any more pollinated. Coverying with a mesh bag may be worthwhile...personally I wouldn't use a plastic bag, because it will probably kill the flower/pepper.
hi buddy i think maybe "perilemochump" or more simple cc-lemon-p " love the channel really got me into growing some myself my cross pollinate mix would be a choc naga and cayenne pepper i think both flavours would be great together 👍 atb simon
Can you cross a mixture of chocolate taste to a hot pepper? That would be a great "Aztec" cross. Having written tha las line...maybe I should have read further down than I did! A chock naga? It sounds good.
Thank you so much for this video. It's really informative. One of the things I don't understand is what happens to the seeds of the pollinated pepper. What happens if I take the seeds of the cross peper and plant them? Is it related to 7:46 that says something about generations? Also if someone can explain what "stable" means in this context, that would be amazing.
Stable means you isolate the pepper through multiple generations of growth. To get them properly stable you need at least 7 generations. If the seed is not stable, then you will get something different from what you expect from your plant when you grow your seeds.
@@ChilliChump thank you for the clarification. So if I understand correctly, I should get the seeds of my crosspolinated pepper, grow them, identify the ones I am most interested in, get the seeds, and repeat the process 7 times to make sure that the genetic profile is rigid?
Like I mention in this video, when you cross pollinate a flower with another flower, the pepper that grows from that cross pollination will be the same as the mother plant. The seeds however will grow into a cross of the two plants. That seed will be F1 (1st generation). When you grow that plant, you need to isolate it so that it doesn't cross pollinate with another plant, or else you have to start again. So you pollinate it with itself. The isolate seeds from the peppers of the F1 plant can then be planted, and grown...that will be F2 (second generation). etc. etc.
@@ChilliChump You are the best! I understand now and thank you for the detailed explanation. The reason why I got interested and fascinated in peppers is because I decided to plant the seeds of a round bell pepper. To my suprise the plants bloomed and fruited horn shaped peppers, I am still trying to identify the variety. Your video and answer gave me an insight on how/why. I now suspect an unstable cross-pollinated reason. Greetings and much respect from Stockholm Sweden.
The idea of coming up with your very own chilly is awesome. I’ve watched Khang cross hiss and saw a few that he has shared. They are stable and doing very well. I couldn’t suggest a name at this point lol. Perrylemon?
I thought this is what you have been doing in your greenhouse all along. My suggestion would be to cross cayenne with jalapeño. Probably all ready done, please enlighten me?
Have you not watched my latest video? There is an update in there....also the garden update video before that there was an update. And a video I did on my hydroponics system a few weeks back was showing the progress of this
Its an ongoing process...which will take years, I am not coming back to this video every time I mention my cross. Here is a video where I discuss the challenge of germinating this plant: th-cam.com/video/yS3NaeY1GyI/w-d-xo.html Here is a video where I built the hydro system I am using for this plant: th-cam.com/video/mB6CJHqPdqQ/w-d-xo.html Here is the last video I showed the plant: th-cam.com/video/72FNK1aJ6U0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you. Yes that is possible, but I believe you would have to cross with another capsicum pubescens. So no crossing with a superhot for example (c.chinense)
I have been showing the result of this cross throughout this season. There was an update during my latest video too. This is a difficult cross to do, but got a seed to finally germinate. Now nuts getting it past the first generation and will start the stabilising process.
Was there ever an update to this video on what the outcome was? I can't find it but would love to see. I'm trying to do my own cross-pollination with some chilli varieties I have going at the moment. Ps, love the channel buddy
I've done a few updates. Here are some th-cam.com/video/nnCOLrzDX-0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/xPuAmqvol_c/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/245lgzpoT1g/w-d-xo.html
A great video. Unfortunately, I have not yet understood how it continues after F1. How do you get the variety varietal? Do you pick the plant from the F1 generation with the characteristics you like the most and then take the most attractive berry to get seeds from it and start the process again or do you have to cross again? Many greetings
For f2 you need to isolate the plant and pollinate it with itself. This will then result in the F2 generation. You choose the plant that has the traits you are looking for from the F1 seeds. You continue doing this through multiple generations until it has stabilised at F8.
Would love suggestions on selecting my next chili seeds. Taste is priority. Scoville around 5 000 - 30 000, my weak Scandinavian tongue can't handle much more.. Currently have a heavy producing Tabasco plant (seriously heavy I think? I'm a beginner and had no idea Tabasco got like a thousand small fruits..). A bit hot for me though. Juicy and almost a bit sour.
What is the process to go from F1 to stable? Do you just keep on harvesting seeds or do you manually cross pollinate each generation? My ideal hybrid would be a very large tabasco with all that juice inside. frutescens does not have any large peppers. However, some scholars believe frutescens to be very close to annuum. Wonder if that can be possible.
Do you have to take the lemon drop pollen and pollinate the piri piri chilli over and over for every gen? Or do you just have to take the seeds and grow from the previous chilli-plant for every gen? Hope that made sense
So, if I understand correctly, you pollinate and tag individual flowers, then plant out the seed from the resulting pepper to get your hybrid? Could have been a bit more clear about the steps, perhaps bullet points would help those of us who aren't good auditory learners or who are non-native English speakers. Thanks for such useful information and great footage. Cant wait to see more :)
What would be your ideal chilli pepper cross?
Also don't forget to let me know your name suggestion!
Pink tiger × habanero
"The Aji Birds Eye"

I'd call it the drop kick.
Can't wait to see what the crossed pepper looks like! I would name it "Golden PP"
Josh Wende you could name it "Trump"
Josh Wende
Golden PP sounds a bit too “Urine-ish” to me. 🤣
uhhh
BAHA
Lol 😆
This was not only extremely educational but filmed beautifully. Thank you so much for posting this one! Amazing!
Thanks for the video! My wife is a beautician and I used her cuticle tool to remove the leaves and peddles. Worked very easy
You gotta have a ‘chump chilli’ at some point....

You took the words right out of my mouth....
Yes, this!!!
A weird looking cross. And the effort you put in is worth it. Great work man keep it up

Hi Jack, have a look in the description of this video. I have linked to the chart I showed in the video which shows compatibility between varieties
Im totally blown away. Our chilli season in AUS is starting. I will look at your chart and study some more. Golden Peri, wow, that would be something.
Btw, love the video closeups. The pollen from the brush floating away.
I'd go for the 'Chumpsa Peridrop'
Chump + SA (South Africa) + peri + drop.
You earned it bro!
(Another good vid, Sir, thankyou and good luck)
Love how you broke this down for us..! Awesome channel too..! Thanks

@@ChilliChump cool watching now
Good luck with the results ! Id say see what the cross looks like and what it tastes like before giving it a name. Lemiri is my suggestion though :)

Thank you!
nice informative vid, keep up the excellent work
Nice masterclass Chillichump.
I agree with others - PeriDrop
and on the bottle label you could mention AM-arseache.
Peri Lemonhead! Painfully tasty

Hope it turns out great! Permon chump could be a good name.
Fascinating, need a steady hand for this, Peri Lemon is simple enough? Or Lemon Peri.
Lepri pop, "half" lemon and half pepri. And just the pop ( kinda rimes with drop ) that comes when you bite down on it and it crunches!
Would love to do a Serrano and Habanero cross. Make a busy Serrano plant or thick walled Habs
i just did that last week with my komodo dragon (orange) and fatalii whites.. used the fatalii pollen on a komodo flower.. looking forward how it turns out, as i'd prefer to get a white komodo dragon pepper :)
Lemon chumps for sure. Is it possible to cross say a green pepper( the big sweet ones) with a super hot chilli?
you could....but you may just end up with a sweet pepper that is smaller...rather than a superhot that is larger!
Chillichump so what you’re saying is that I could grow a super hot looking chilli that’s actually not, which will naturally impress the ladies 😏😂
lol...yeah something like that 😀
Lemon peri simple easy no mistaking the cross

@@ChilliChump You are the best! I understand now and thank you for the detailed explanation. The reason why I got interested and fascinated in peppers is because I decided to plant the seeds of a round bell pepper. To my suprise the plants bloomed and fruited horn shaped peppers, I am still trying to identify the variety. Your video and answer gave me an insight on how/why. I now suspect an unstable cross-pollinated reason. Greetings and much respect from Stockholm Sweden.
The idea of coming up with your very own chilly is awesome. I’ve watched Khang cross hiss and saw a few that he has shared. They are stable and doing very well. I couldn’t suggest a name at this point lol. Perrylemon?
I thought this is what you have been doing in your greenhouse all along. My suggestion would be to cross cayenne with jalapeño. Probably all ready done, please enlighten me?
Thank you. That was very interesting
Would like to suggest as Hot Berry
This channel is awesome! I'd name that one a 'zesti berry'. Would want to see a cross between a fatalii either with a ghost or a birdseye demon
you know it has to be called a Chump Chilli right?
I hope we get an update
Have you not watched my latest video? There is an update in there....also the garden update video before that there was an update. And a video I did on my hydroponics system a few weeks back was showing the progress of this
Normally the update in link is embedded in the original one I did not see one can u please give me the link
Its an ongoing process...which will take years, I am not coming back to this video every time I mention my cross.
Here is a video where I discuss the challenge of germinating this plant: th-cam.com/video/yS3NaeY1GyI/w-d-xo.html
Here is a video where I built the hydro system I am using for this plant: th-cam.com/video/mB6CJHqPdqQ/w-d-xo.html
Here is the last video I showed the plant: th-cam.com/video/72FNK1aJ6U0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you I found this page last night .will keep up as I have subscribe
So for the removal of the stamen would it be easier to remove it with a scalpel?
Sure, if you have steady hands
Chiili chump great vid,any idea of possible cross pollinating rocoto with any other chilli cheers
Thank you. Yes that is possible, but I believe you would have to cross with another capsicum pubescens. So no crossing with a superhot for example (c.chinense)
Gonna try and make a sweet but spicy chilly any recommendations for parents plants to start
Do you have a follow up video on what the seeds produced?
I did a update in my last video
@@ChilliChump thank you Shaun. I have been binging your updates, since I wrote the comment.
Did you ever make a video of the results? Can you talk is more through stabilisation?
I have been showing the result of this cross throughout this season. There was an update during my latest video too. This is a difficult cross to do, but got a seed to finally germinate. Now nuts getting it past the first generation and will start the stabilising process.
Was there ever an update to this video on what the outcome was? I can't find it but would love to see. I'm trying to do my own cross-pollination with some chilli varieties I have going at the moment. Ps, love the channel buddy
I've done a few updates. Here are some

A great video. Unfortunately, I have not yet understood how it continues after F1. How do you get the variety varietal? Do you pick the plant from the F1 generation with the characteristics you like the most and then take the most attractive berry to get seeds from it and start the process again or do you have to cross again? Many greetings
For f2 you need to isolate the plant and pollinate it with itself. This will then result in the F2 generation. You choose the plant that has the traits you are looking for from the F1 seeds. You continue doing this through multiple generations until it has stabilised at F8.
@@ChilliChump thank you so much for your reply! Have a great day!
Would love suggestions on selecting my next chili seeds. Taste is priority. Scoville around 5 000 - 30 000, my weak Scandinavian tongue can't handle much more.. Currently have a heavy producing Tabasco plant (seriously heavy I think? I'm a beginner and had no idea Tabasco got like a thousand small fruits..). A bit hot for me though. Juicy and almost a bit sour.
What is the process to go from F1 to stable? Do you just keep on harvesting seeds or do you manually cross pollinate each generation?
My ideal hybrid would be a very large tabasco with all that juice inside.
frutescens does not have any large peppers. However, some scholars believe frutescens to be very close to annuum. Wonder if that can be possible.
To get to stable you need to isolate the flowers of the new plant, and do that through 8 generations. I will show this process going forward!
The lemon chumperi!
Do you have to take the lemon drop pollen and pollinate the piri piri chilli over and over for every gen? Or do you just have to take the seeds and grow from the previous chilli-plant for every gen? Hope that made sense
You need to isolate in the next generations and make the plant self pollinate. You don't need to keep crossing
So, if I understand correctly, you pollinate and tag individual flowers, then plant out the seed from the resulting pepper to get your hybrid? Could have been a bit more clear about the steps, perhaps bullet points would help those of us who aren't good auditory learners or who are non-native English speakers. Thanks for such useful information and great footage. Cant wait to see more :)
How's your cross going? Are you still growing it? Whats it look like now? 3 years on!
Have a look in the description of this video, there are a few updates linked
So many possibilities. What about a Bangalore Whippets Tail crossed with a Scotch Bonnet?!
Once you have planted the seeds from the crossed pepper do you leave them self pollinate themselves from then on to get a pure strain?
I continue to isolate them by pollinating them with themselves. I will do this for 7 generations until it is stable
Lemon and Peri go large!
Made me laugh 😊
