I am a first time gardener this year. I started peppers and tomatoes back in March and they were struggling to grow. They were staying healthy just not growing much. A few days ago I started doing this method for both my peppers and tomatoes and the growth over the past couple days has exploded! I can't believe how much they have grown. The tomatoes are growing up and the peppers are growing bushier. Thanks!!
Just wanted to say "Thank you" for all of your videos and the time you take out of your days for us all. I started growing peppers because of you and now my basement is full of them and my wife to be is always anxious mishandling a pepper and touching her face afterwards, haha.
hahahah awesome!
make video. using nutrients on both. but one feeding from top and one from bottom
absolutely true. this comparison was not really about hydro vs not hydro. this was about pure water vs water with nutirents i think. it was a biased test. both plant should have got the same amount of nutrient but in different way.
@@tivadar89 this will be hard, he must grow in coco to make the experiment work
This is hydro in method, you’d fertilize your water reservoir
most meaningless video on TH-cam. Proves (?) that a plant which gets fed grows faster than one which does not. WOW. Try that with your children. Same results. Except you go to jail. What a waste of time. This is what happens on TH-cam. He's such a star (no pun; Starr?) that even BS videos get plenty of "likes". Like when he bought peppers & put them into jars of vinegar. Jeez.
Or even better, with nutrients and without nutrients...fed from top and the other fed from bottom to have more variables to be able to actually isolate the most beneficial scenario.🤷🏽♂️
Came again to learn some more. Two questions that I would appreciate your answers for.
1. What is the temperature under which they grow? I am trying it out in India--very hot weather!
2. What kind of lighting you have for these plants?
Thanks very much for your meticulous experiments with control and lucid and clear explanations.
impressive difference in growth! it would be nice to also see a plant fed with organic fertilizer in parallel. thanks for the video!
Another awesome video khang. Keep it coming. U appreciate what you are sharing. Thank you very much
I have successfully propagated pepper cuttings to plants. It took some time but the result is amazing. I propagated in water 😊👌
sigh i am loving how very very easy it is to plant things and have your own. Decent enough time but extremely easy. (sigh) love it. thank you for showing this redcup doing too. :^)
Continuing with my tomato 2 cup system and I can truly say this is the best looking tomato seedlings Ive ever grown, this is my first full try at this method with tomatoes. I started out using some miracle grow then switched to fish Hydrolysate which is organic and the plants are doing great.
Excellent demonstration
I was wondering how this worked 👍 thanks for the tips
So are you feeding the control plant with nutrients from top or not at all? If not, i would like to see experiment which compares nutrients feeding from top and bottom.

What if I use fish emulsion is that fine? I've used it once but I haven't seen a big change in my plants like you have in a short amount of time. They are about a little over a month old and they are much smaller than your plants..Also exactly which plant food do you use? The floragro?
How often are you feeding the plants at bottom? What strength are you using? And are you just giving them the little but if water up to the stone and that's it? Do you water the soil from the top at all or is it dry?
Thanks for sharing. My Reapers the few that germinated are less than an inch tall but I am looking forward to trying this method when they get a little size on them.
that should be expected when soil is dry and plant is able to get nutrients only from bottom, but what if plant is watered from top, so soil is moist and can provide some nutrients to roots.
Jan Faix I was going to make the same comment.
Creeping up on 40k, Khang! Glad I found your channel (and the Pepper Lover's community).
How would you transfer a plant after the roots have established like the one with roots out the bottom of the cup?
nice video! i am going to start some peppers and use this method
I found this video back at the beginning of this year, and started collecting yoghurt pots that my wife and I eat. 5 months later, and I have 14 well grown plants that are absolutely loaded with peppers (ranging from standard bell peppers, to Hungarian hot wax, to Birdseyes, to scotch bonnets). I’d like to transplant them to soil though. I have a couple of questions...
1. Am I likely to lose the peppers? I can live with that as ours right at the beginning of the summer, so still have plenty of growing time left.
2. Does this method of growing make transplanting to soil easier, as the plants are already being grown in soil, but being fed hydro nutrients from the bottom?
3. What’s the benefit of growing peppers this way? For the transplanting process? If so, is it better to transplant before they start producing fruit?
What do you used to nutrients the plant? It look lovely plants growth healthy
Excellent and very useful. Thanks
Wow! That's amazing!! I've never seen anybody compare feeding to not and what difference that it makes!! Thanks!!
Hi Khang...it's been a while. I'm loving the double cup method. Just started using it for my tomatoes (after killng some of them..lol) and it's an amazing difference. I do have questions though. Have you shot a video growing tomatoes from seed and when do you start giving them extra calcium?
Nice video, I will try that as well
I have a question for you....when using the micro, grow, and bloom nutrients in this method do you ever see a "film" that looks like it could be one of 2 things like a biofilm. Being salt or bacteria sitting on top of the water in the bottom cups? I'm having this issue and it seems to me it might possibly be the bloom portion of the nutrients solution breaking away from the rest and forming a salt layer due to the inability of the plants needing this at such an early stage....does this sound right? Or have you experienced this at all? If so is there a fix or should I just remove the bloom in my mix? Thank you in advance
great video,is't possible to transplnat in a larger pot and put them out side and watering with normal water? ,thank you
Your voice is therapeutic, while still being the PERFECT tone for educating.
HOWEVER.... The plant on the left was given water only. Why WOULDNT the one given nutrients do better?
It seems TO ME that between ANY two living things, if you feed one and not the other, the nourished one is bound to do better.
ButThatsJUSTme.
That is why I said in the video that at certain size, you need to feed your plants. Whether it be soil fertilizer not hydroponic, they need some kind of feeding to do well.
I think I'm probably confused on the goal of the test, then.
So this test was basically just to show that fertilization is beneficial for plants in general?? That a plant won't prosper with water ALONE?
I mean -- Are there gardeners who prefer to grow their plants with waterONLY, withOUT feeding?
I realize I'm probably asking something that may seem odd to most ppl, but I just never heard of that preference, so I'm attempting to learn the full lesson of this test, I guess.
Hi Khang, when bottom feeding do you still water from the top a little to or do you let the soil completely dry out?
Thanks 🙏🏼
I like the double cup method. Although, I water from the bottom the whole time, except when am try to get the seeds to germinate. Once they pop up I bottom water. My only problem I have with it, is when I have a LOT of cups going, it takes a while to water /feed everyone. My only other difference is that I use fish emulsion, which stinks going in, but goes away pretty quickly.
Have you ever done a hydro test vs one in soil being fed with liquid fertilizer?
Brian K this would make more sense. When you compare 2 plants where one is fertilized and one isn't, the results are going to be obvious.
i am loving your channel, i find the videos very helpful, can you recommend a good hydro nutrient.
there is so much choice i am finding it hard, i currently using a product called (chilli focus) to top water potted soil peppers, i would light to try your double put bottom feed method.
please keep up the good work
Is there enough room in the glass for the roots to grow full term? Or longer enough to actually have fruit or veggies?
Hi Khang,would it make a differents if i would top feed the nutrients instead of bottom feed?please,thanks
Khang, when you grow in your grow tent assuming it’s in your garage, do you worry about the humidity when growing your hot pepper plants? Also do you keep the tent door open pretty much all the time?
I've got some plants in solo cups but i don't see roots coming through the bottom. I do bottom water but I do not have the cups inside the other a you do. It's that why my roots aren't coming through?
I am top watering a young pepper plant, what ratio of Dyna-Gro to water would you recommend using for daily top watering?
about what level of EC would you say that these are growing so well with? Im using MaxiGro. I just want to veg my peppers until theyre really big for flowering..
What about an experiment where you feed the plant in the dirt some of the same hydro formula a few times a week?
when should i transplant my pepper plants from seeed cell to a bigger container?
Hi anh Khang, I new at planting, I just got so addicted to your pepper planting methods. Since you have so many hot pepper pods, is there any way I can order some seeds from you directly? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌷
so I'm doing an experiment with green bell peppers and ones soil and another is in a hydroponic thing I made from a cup any advice ? (ps) looking at my plants I think they are both going to die no matter what I do...
hi good buddy question do you ever use super thrive along with fertilizer in the double cup method? or do you think that the super thrive is just a hype product?
Can I use all purpose fertilizer that contains both macro and micro nutrients in a system like this
What was the white stuff sprinkled on top of the soil?
Probably sand so that the flies cant lay their eggs in the soil
What is that white material on the top?.
Plus, I use ordinary water from the well. Is that water suitable for my containers' gardening please?.
have you ever made hot pepper jelly? You have the perfect peppers for it, so many varieties...
I recently just heard about this. I want to try some first.
Khang Star what can I use for hydroponics from my local store where I can feed them every day
If i grow them outside and i live in tropical country should i just keep them on the shade while doing this? Hope u can help me and thanks very much... ☺
Instead of a bag could I put the cutting into a rockwool cube, and then a cup with holes, inside a cup with just water? Thank You
This method works very well for me right now but at what point should I transfer the plants to a pot
Do u have little gnats that grow from pepper plants? Is that what the white powder on top of soil is for?
Nice! But how do you create your hydroponic solution for scotch bonnet peppers?
Great video appreciate it! What is the powder on top of soil? Your videos got me into the pepper groups that got me addicted ha!🌱🌶🔥
It looks like Diatomaceous Earth powder, to keep gnats from hatching eggs.
May I know what is white powder in the plants? Thanks.
Why no clay pebble in the water only plant? The roots need air and the water only plant can't get air without a pebble of some kind to hold it up. Do you use a grow light?
Once roots appear at the bottom - do you strictly water from bottom only? Does the soil not dry out?
What will happen to that plant on the right? How will you continue to take care of it so that it bears peppers?
how do you transfer them into bigger pots with all that roots?
What is the white stuff on the soil? What does it do?
What is the white powder in the top of each cup?
curious what is the White stuff you placed on the top of them ...you kind of forgot to mention it or I clearly didn't hear it?
Can I ask what the white powder is on top? Is it diamatacious earth?
i bought cups like that size but when im home i did not realize that its transparent so i was looking for solution to cover the whole cup and my husband suggested to put in a milk cartoon the 1ltr size that fits to the cup.
This is awesome. How do you get rid of green aphids? My naga plants are covered it in and currently spraying off with water, soap and neem oil but they keep coming back.
Lady bugs
Very Nice Vídeo , Thank you 👍🏼
Hi Khang. i found out what was wrong. "lost in translation". ghe translated the mixture with with 1 ml pr. gallon in stead of 1 tsp.... 5 ml, so i think all my plants after 2 weeks areVERY hungry.
When you planted those cuttings,did the ends extend all the way to bottom of the cup?
But if you feed it with normal water it will still be healthy right?
Do you keep the dirt moist or just use the water on bottom?
Great video! I'm learning how to do this... Questions for you - what did you put on top of the soil? Also what are you using when you say "hydroponic nutrients"?
Hydroponic nutrient is liquid nutrients.
Hello Khang. Would the Aggressive Growth mix from General Hydroponics a good choice for this stage?
No, I don't recommend that mix. When it comes to peppers, it's better to underfeed than overfeed.
where we get hydroponic nutrients
Is it the given bottle water have all the nutrients
looking great the plants look very healthy, i was wondering if using smart water is better then making your own mix
Smart water doesn't have nutrients, like my mix, so it will not work as well.
ok thanks for the tip
When it's time to transplant, how do you remove the plant from the cup without damaging the roots?
That’s the video I want to see. There has to be a point where they need to be placed in a bigger pot.
Did you all your "liquid" to each plant at the same time? How often did you feed/water them? Every day, 5 days, etc. Thanks
Good question
Nice set up. But what’s the white stuff ??? And how you make hydro with water
You still haven't answered what the white stuff is that you put on the surface. How do you prevent fungus gnats?
will there be a problem with transplanting with he roots hanging out?
What kind of hydroponic nutrients are you feeding them and
how often are you feeding them? Do you cut the strength of the nutrients back
since you feed them so frequently?
I think he checks the cups on a daily basis and adds nutrients if the cup is empty/dried out.
Have you ran the master blend on these types of grows and if so what's your thoughts on its quality/expense etc?
I have done that last year, works great as well. MB is very cheap.
NIce update thanks for sharing . Love a good experiment , Look forward to the updates
What’s ur hydro nutrients? I wanna use that for bigger leaves! What did u use? Why did u not mention it in ur video? :(
If you cut about an inch off the top of a cup then turn it upsidedown, you can slide up another cup to act as a collar to give more space at the bottom.
Out of curiosity, can you get plants in pots like these to flower/fruit? Or would you usually re-pot to encourage it to get bigger before letting it flower?
The reason I ask is that I’m low on space, but do have enough ~1L pots I can use to grow them. Enough to double cup like you did here.
Do you put any water in the bottom before germination?
Did uou just poke little holes or is there a big hole at the bottom
did you put holes in the bottom of both of those?
Does this just test nutrients vs no nutrients? I mean what if you used just 1 cup and watered it with the same nutrients from the top
What's the white powder added at TS 1:50?
Hi Khang could I use MiracleGro liquid houseplant food? Thanks again for another informative video.
Yes, you can. Just make sure to mix a all purpose mix. Don't over do the fertilizer.
what is the white stuff you put on the top of the soil.
What ingredients are in the hydroponic solution?
Thanku. Since ur using 2 cups n d top cup has holes for drainage, i would think that d holes would be covered by d second cup n might suffocate d plant. But since d plant is in a small cup n d plant is still small, it's ok.
where did you buy your hydrophonics and what brand?
Please add links and info on common inexpensive nutrients. Thank you.
Very good 😊
What’s the powder you have on top of the soil? Diatomaceous earth? What are you trying to control
probably fungus gnats. strange that he didn't mention that.
Thanks Khang
Always helpful.
Does hydroponics solutions can be use to water plants in soil???
not all but with GHE Flora Series its possible for Coco soil
