I am Italian too. Let me share with you a hot pepper oil aka peperoncini sott'olio we do, recipe has been passed down from my grandmother that is from Italy. Chop your hot peppers into very small pieces. place in a bowl and very generously salt them (sea salt or kosher salt works best, it will feel like alot of salt but do not worry) cover bowl and leave at room temp for 24 hours. Drain any liquid and then cover in vinegar and leave another 24 hours. Drain all vinegar off. put peppers in a clean jar and cover in oil (we use canola so the oil doesn't over power the pepper flavor, light olive oil is fine too) then close jar and is shelf stable for upto 1 year if they last that long. perfect over pasta 😁
I have a special needs child. He watches your videos over and over with a smile on his face. My wife and I can’t tell you how rare it is to see a smile on his face. As a result, we’ve built a big patio container garden with him following all of your tips. You have touched a life more than you know. Endless thank you from a fellow Jersey guy (we recognize our own :))
I'm a 73 yr. Cancer survivor up here in Mass. Started gardening with my grandfather from Russia when I started to walk. Love your videos. Great help for a successful growing season. Peace and love to all.
Super hot peppers and their capsaicin is known to deter cancer. Ed Currie cross breeds to create hotter and hotter varieties for this reason. Look into it. Puckerbutt Pepper company. He is a good man.
@@TheMillennialGardenerve looked thru all my seed catalogs n cant find any of these three, where do you buy yours MG? Haha nevermind, just heard you say it
As a pepper lover I would like to add the Ukrainian “Lesya” pepper. It is almost shaped like a heart. It gets sizable enough to stuff. An be eaten green or red. No heat at all but sweet. When stuffed or cooked the fragrance is amazing. Every time I pick one I say a prayer for peace. Give them a go. Cheers!
Most people don’t know that you can winter over pepper plants. I’ve found, the hotter ones are easier. I have a 2 year old jalapeño, a 3 year old habanero, and a 4 year old Carolina Reaper. I can’t eat the reaper, 😂but I have fun sharing with those that do. 😍 Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. ❤
I subbed to all videos, I too am Italian, and I love pickling hot peppers, I planted 8 verieties, last year I had troubl finding all of them, I love serranos, so I bought 4 cowhorn plants, they were hot and so productive, I could not believe how many peppers came of those 4 plant, I picked them every other week, but they were a thin walled pepper and they got very soft from the boiling brine, so I dried them in my dehydrator and ground them into red pepper flakes, I have a whole qt mason jar full, to season chilli or what ever for a year, yeah, I use a qt or red pepper flake per year. Last year I canned 50 qts of tomatoes and 15 qts of hot peppers, I only have 3 qts of peppers left, I do give some to friends, but we love em, great videos I love the tips.
Man...the hot cherry pepper is amazing. Another pepper you might enjoy is the Jimmy Nardello pepper which was brought over from Italy by Giuseppe Nardiello about 145 years ago. It is long and thin walled which is great for people that have a hard time digesting peppers and it makes for excellent dried peppers. It is deep red, really delicious and it grows like crazy. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada🍁
I love growing many pepper varieties. Just started growing shishito and Tennessee Cheese peppers three years ago. The latter came to me by accident but I saved the seeds which I start early. Love your videos.
I've been pickling peppers for years, and have finally settled on the escebeche recipe from chili pepper madness, lightyears better than the simple salt/vinegar/water method
Hewroo, been a farmer/gardener 🧑🌾 for 6 months now.. thanks to yu and these other TH-cam gardeners for sharing your success/failures. Thanks to yu guys my family and I have been enjoying home grown veggies 🥗 .. love your videos ❤
LOVED your interview with James Priglioni in New Jersey. Very cool. I enjoyed your interview and your info for peppers. You mince no words and tell it like it is. Thanks!! Michael
Thank you for explaining heartworm disease to everyone. As a vet tech, I can't count the times someone has said it is just made up by veterinarians to get money. Some people are so hard headed.
Spend one month volunteering at a shelter...you'll learn it the hard way. The amount of dogs that die down here in the South is crazy, and it's so easy to prevent. The preventative is cheap and easy, so there is no excuse.
Many people don't realize that heartworm medications such as Ivermectin are dewormers so it doesn't necessarily prevent a dog from being infected but it kills potential larve before they turn into adult heart clogging spaghetti. Even if 3-4 doses are missed, the medication has a reach back effect and will kill any existing larve that may be present in the blood with almost 100% efficacy. In fact, In dogs with confirmed heartworm infections, vets use the same Medication to treat the infection just at higher doses. So if you miss a couple doses, its totally safe to start meds again without worrying about adverse health effects. HW is MUCH more common in areas that stay warm year round like in the south because mosquitos die when Temps drop below 5O degrees Just a tidbit of info I learned working at a vet office & sitting through pharmaceutical presentations lol
I love all peppers I’ve eaten from bells and Fresnos to some of the hottest like dragons breaths scorpions reapers and the famed pepper x but I feel like some of the more normal peppers like these don’t get enough attention for this reason I loved the video
I’m from the Philly area now living in Delaware county just outside the city. Now that I have the yard room I’m excited to start growing. Your videos are very helpful thanks!
Good advice MG and Dale...heartworm preventive is a must.🐕 Mr. Dale is looking good!🐕 Loved this video...especially, how to pickle and cook with the peppers. 😃👍
My favorite pepper is the Cajun Belle. It a small snack size bell pepper with the heat of a jalapeno and the sweetness of a bell pepper. The plant overwinters great and produce peppers like crazy. Also banana and pablano peppers are my number 2 and 3.
I love a sweet pepper called Carmen's. They turn red get larger than the sweet pepper you were holding. Very tasty my favorite to eat raw. For me in Pennsylvania they're also very productive.
Hot cherry peppers I definitely also must insist everyone grow! Wonderful in pasta and also if you decide to pickle them, they are so good on salads, sandwiches especially in hot subs . AMAZING y'all 😋
Oh man, pickled cherry peppers stuffed with prosciutto wrapped provolone with a piece of crusty bread is one of my favorite snack. I don’t know if it’s just a Rhode Island thing but it should be everywhere
I do like peppers.. Mine are the Hungarian hot wax kind. Got some blue peppers this year and Tequila sunrise also along with the regular hab's, Scot bonnets, Jalapenos and bells. I will try the garden salsa and Bountys next season. Thanks for the vid!
new to the channel I want to say I love your descriptions of the peppers and how to actually cook them I have banana peppers grown for the first time I can't wait to try to pickle them and put them in some salads.
Discovered datil peppers as a bonus seed pack when I ordered a certain amount of packs. Come to find out they were developed in St. Augustine, FL and love the heat and rain. They are habanero hot but with a bit of citrus sweetness. They ripen in succession rather than all at once. Makes great spicy sweet jelly.
i bet that garden salsa would make a wonderful bread and butter pepper pickle which are great on burgers .. thank you for this video .. i am in zone 7b/8a and have wanted to grow some good looking peppers such as those to can.
Thank you for insite on those peppers. I'm growing some cherry peppers now in Florida.I think i had those garden peppers by luck one day.. but thought it was a cowhorn pepper.The hottness lasted on my fingers & hands for 24 hrs.
This year I went all heirloom when possible. It's really the only way to find unusual or different food than the grocery. Shishitos, Pimento Sweet, Marconi and and heirloom grew back - Corno di Toro. Love the vids - akways learn something,
Just stumbled upon your channel. Excellent video. I've been gardening for over 50 years and the thing that makes gardening enjoyble is you learn something new and can implement it into your own garden. I downsized my house a couple of years ago where I had 6 4'x6' raised beds. Now I'm in 15 5gal buckets. I plan to try your pepper varieties next year. Thank you.
Wow 15 plants - still a pretty good sized garden.What do you grow? Do you grow in Srp and Fall? I am just getting started and have approx 14. I've got 4 peppers, 3 tomatos, 2 cucumbers, a strawberry and have bok Choy & Swiss Chard seedlings I will transplant soon. I am prolly going to grow onion & garlic over the winter too.
We love peppers, and you've convinced me to find the Garden Salsa and Hot Cherry varieties and grow next year. This year we only had 2 bell pepper plants and 2 hot banana pepper plants (with which I'm getting ready to make a hot banana pepper hot sauce).
Very informative. Never grown a pepper plant...but started Serrano peppers this year. My family will love these...but now I wish I'd started a Banana pepper for me. They are so pretty when covered in fruit. Thanks !! Good eating. ❤😊
Im trying Bounty this year and Im excited to see what I get. If you want to try a bell pepper again, Im growing an Emerald Giant pepper and omg...you have to try it! I overwintered this one because it got started late in the fall, so I stuck it in a pot, and put it back out in the garden the end of Feb. Right now theres 15 peppers growing on it, and its full of more bloom. Big strong sturdy plant...Im so impressed. Im in FL so it seems to enjoy the heat.
I followed some of your peppernerd advice, and for the first time in 7 years they are GROWING and PRODUCING! Looks like i'm going to get SALSA this year from my OWN HOME GROWN veggies! YEE YEE!
I have so many red bell, yellow banana, jalapeño, dragon roll, serrano and cayenne. I use some in salsa, I put some in soup--whole, I eat them. So good.
I harvested my first peppers, 2 varieties, and used them in dinner this evening. Love your take on your favorite peppers to plant. Thanks for sharing....
I am a pepper lover of different flavors, but have a very low heat tolerance so I use lime juice to tone down the heat. I tried Habanada and Nadapeño this year but didn't get any fruit because our growing season wasn't long or hot enough. I have several plants I will be attempting to over-winter so I can get a head start on next year's crop.
I enjoy eating the small sweet peppers you see at the grocery store so much that I took out the seeds and grow them every year and the production is crazy. know wonder they sell them, you can grow them commercially because of the yields.
These are great tips! I am obsessed with the lemon drop. I make a tabasco style hot sauce with it that's fruitier than the red stuff. Dried as flakes they are better than red pepper flakes. Can't wait for summer.
The cherry pepper is almost as hot as a jalapeño but it’s manageable. Pickle them in slices and put it on subs, salads, and anything else you can think of
Grown over 200 sweet pepper varieties here in Ohio and the 2 I always grow the most are red and golden Marconi. Early thick walled big peppers and can be used for anything.
I've had great success growing banana peppers,, but I've always grown the hot variety. In terms of heat, they fall somewhere between jalapenos and serranos. By far, my favorite pepper is the cowhorn. They grow about as long as a banana, but they're not as big around. They're the hottest pepper I grow, but they're also the tastiest and among the most productive.. I still have a couple jars I canned in October 2019.
You are a doll! So encouraging and very informative. I'm waiting for my bells to change color and in the meantime my peckerhead birds have gotten 3 . I planted Hungarian yellow also. We usually buy boxes or gunny sacks of the Hatch green chili's right about now, roast them, cover when cool slide the skin off and bag and freeze.
One of my favorites for fall hot sauce making is Sugar Rush Peach! Baccatums set fruit late, and they all ripen around the same time once the heat breaks in late sumner! Very fruity and sweet with pronounced but short lived heat and a non-descript tropical aftertaste. I also love most Paprika varieties for roasting and stuffing with cheese. I ditched Jalapeño for some of the Hatch and Numex varieties, and have no regrets. Ashe County Pimento is my go to for early setting and prolific sweet red peppers, especially for the northern climates. An odd ball variety to look for seeds is the CGN 21500. One of my favorites, it has roughly half the heat of an orange habanero, and tastes much better with almost no detectable floral or soap flavor! As mentioned earlier, Ill second Shishito for an all around best variety. Prolific, and great grilled, smoked or stir fried at any stage!
I feel same way on peppers. Only bell i found worth the space is "King of north" bell pepper ..it really pumps them out from july right till frost where i am in southern new england. Another great and versatile heavy producer pepper worth some real estate is the "yum yum"/ lunchbox ..great in salad ,great popper pepper and just snacking on as watering
I found this video got me really excited. I got a little pepper game going now butI'm a rookie so to speak but with this I'm really upping my pepper game next year. Awesome brother thanks
Peppers are great plants to learn on. They're productive, disease resistant and can really tolerate heat. Hot peppers also have very few pests for some reason 😂 Growing peppers is what taught me how to garden on my own. They were the first things I ever grew by myself.
@@TheMillennialGardener thanks again I'm doing good but next year you gave me a new plan...I'm excited. I'm in Texas...I guess I'll have to wait till spring?
I've really been enjoying your content. I'm on the other side of North Carolina in the foothills at Polk county near lake lure. If you are a spice fan, try a Carolina reaper not to eat raw, tear up and not enjoy. But I take all my fruit and dry them then grind it up into a powder. I generally get a mason jars hole at the end of the season. And it is well enough to last me and many friends till the next year. Only takes a little sprinkle or a partial spoonful in a giant chili batch. If used wisely it can give good heat multiple times out of one single pepper.
Let garden salsa peppers mature to bright red. Great base for hot sauce to add hotter varieties if you like. Good after roasting for sauce. One of my favs, too.
That cherry pepper sounds interesting. I try at least one new pepper per year, just for the fun of it and I think I'll add cherry pepper to the line up for next year or maybe even this fall if I can get seeds right now. This year I tried Beaver Dam for the first time and am impressed. A bit hot (for me) and a bit sweet. I split them in half and stuffed with goat cheese, chopped sun dried tomatoes and chopped bacon. Baked off till goowy. Yum! Thanks for sharing your pepper picks.

Super hot peppers and their capsaicin is known to deter cancer. Ed Currie cross breeds to create hotter and hotter varieties for this reason. Look into it. Puckerbutt Pepper company. He is a good man.
God bless you 🙏 ❤
Although its a common pepper, I love fresh blistered and grilled Shishito peppers.
Common peppers are usually common for a reason - popularity. If something has reached ubiquitous status, it's probably for a good reason.
@@TheMillennialGardenerve looked thru all my seed catalogs n cant find any of these three, where do you buy yours MG? Haha nevermind, just heard you say it
Our shishito from Baker Creek was super early as well! Very happy with it so far.
'WHATS GROWING ON GARDENERS', that's so corny I love it

Is the JN a hot pepper???
@@mercedesbenzs600bash No it's mild. I like to throw in a hot pepper to spice it up.
@gioknows OK thanks...
I was surprised he didn't mention the Jimmy, either. I've got a few of them in my garden for the first time this year, they're doing great!
@dlr978 Is JN a hot pepper???
As a pepper lover, I thank you!
The best banana pepper I've ever tried is Golden Treausre. Very tasty, grows big and the plants are ridiculously abundant
Try Alaku Sarga pepper!! It's my faaaavorite. It's a sweet pepper but has a delightful flavor. Different than a regular pepper. Just YUM!
One of my favorites is the Cubanelle. It looks like the banana pepper, but slightly larger. It is great stuffed like enchiladas.
I love growing many pepper varieties. Just started growing shishito and Tennessee Cheese peppers three years ago. The latter came to me by accident but I saved the seeds which I start early. Love your videos.
Some good, useful picks! Gotta love those huge banana peppers
They’re really fantastic. I also like that you can get them both hot and sweet.
Those pickled peppers look to die for! I'm inspired to make them myself. I'll be saving this video for future reference.
I've been pickling peppers for years, and have finally settled on the escebeche recipe from chili pepper madness, lightyears better than the simple salt/vinegar/water method

@@TheMillennialGardener oops I’m so sorry for this message. I thought I was commented to my other friend. Silly me😂I love your channel also.
For hot peppers, I recommend pequin peppers. They're tiny, but they're insanely hot and also yield an insane amount! Pequin peppers grow as a shrub.
I’ve gone with small peppers this year also. So much more productive and they taste great! And if a pest gets one you don’t loose 1/5 your crop.
scotch bonnets are my jam. basically a fruity habanero, so good!
So far I have only had marconi giants and Italian sweets this year. So glad I came across your channel. It's really beginner friendly!
Good advice MG and Dale...heartworm preventive is a must.🐕

oh gosh, i love d way u eat em pickled pepper..i do that too & share to my dad-in-law & loved em ...
They're just phenomenal. They're every bit as good as cucumbers pickled.
@@TheMillennialGardener yes! ...
My favorite is sugar rush peach & sugar rush peach stripe. Makes an amazing hot sauce, and I do put it on everything

Cascabella- wonderful little 1”-2” yellow pepper.. snacking pepper. Mezzetta uses them for their pickled chili peppers in jars for snacking.
Garden Salsa Hybrid. A must have for me! Been growing it for years.
This year I went all heirloom when possible. It's really the only way to find unusual or different food than the grocery. Shishitos, Pimento Sweet, Marconi and and heirloom grew back - Corno di Toro. Love the vids - akways learn something,
You have fun gardening. It's a ton of planning, work, adapting and finally wrap it up with a bow, and have fun with it! Thanks for these videos
It definitely is very rewarding!
I'm enjoying growing Nassau peppers. They taste great and don't mind how hot it's getting here.
I love the hot cherry peppers. I didn’t grow them this year but now wishing I did. Next year for sure.

Italian Melrose, Burpee's hybrid Gypsy, and the small 1" very hot, red, Thai, pepper. All very productive and great
I loooove peppers! Thank you!
Lol at the lizard on the cherry pepper plant at 10:39, hanging on to that branch on the left for dear life.
My yard is like a lizard zoo. It's amazing how nature will find you if you grow the plants they desire.

It is! Anyone can do it. Dig it up, stick it in a pot and as long as you keep it above freezing, it'll keep growing.
Great video. Love it that you actually cook it and show us some recipes. I bet they would be good with an aioli.
Amazing pepper tree.
I LOVE banana peppers. I never have enough. Thank goodness I work at a greenhouse.

Right now theres 15 peppers growing on it, and its full of more bloom. Big strong sturdy plant...Im so impressed. Im in FL so it seems to enjoy the heat.
I followed some of your peppernerd advice, and for the first time in 7 years they are GROWING and PRODUCING! Looks like i'm going to get SALSA this year from my OWN HOME GROWN veggies! YEE YEE!
Excellent work! Congrats! As you grow more and more successful, you'll want to grow bigger and bigger 🙂 I'm happy to know the videos are helping.
Once again, I wish I could give one of your videos more than 1 thumbs up.
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying them! Thank you!
I have so many red bell, yellow banana, jalapeño, dragon roll, serrano and cayenne. I use some in salsa, I put some in soup--whole, I eat them. So good.
I just harvested garden salsa peppers this morning.
I harvested my first peppers, 2 varieties, and used them in dinner this evening. Love your take on your favorite peppers to plant. Thanks for sharing....
I am a pepper lover of different flavors, but have a very low heat tolerance so I use lime juice to tone down the heat. I tried Habanada and Nadapeño this year but didn't get any fruit because our growing season wasn't long or hot enough. I have several plants I will be attempting to over-winter so I can get a head start on next year's crop.
I enjoy eating the small sweet peppers you see at the grocery store so much that I took out the seeds and grow them every year and the production is crazy. know wonder they sell them, you can grow them commercially because of the yields.
These are great tips! I am obsessed with the lemon drop. I make a tabasco style hot sauce with it that's fruitier than the red stuff. Dried as flakes they are better than red pepper flakes. Can't wait for summer.
It'll be here before we know it. I'm starting my tomato and pepper seeds this upcoming weekend!
The Bounty Hybrid looks like the Sweet Sunset peppers I have growing right now. Crazy high production too.
Very nice pepper plants and share👍
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Wow. I love banana peppers but never seen Bounty Going to check those out. Love to pickle peppers. Blessings ❤️🌺
Oh, what fun! I hope these will do half as well up in western Washington! Thanks!
Hungarian Hot Wax are my #1. They grow much larger than regular banana peppers or jalapenos and pack a nice punch!
The cherry pepper is almost as hot as a jalapeño but it’s manageable. Pickle them in slices and put it on subs, salads, and anything else you can think of
Excellent video! Made me subscribe, can’t wait to see more!
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it!
Grown over 200 sweet pepper varieties here in Ohio and the 2 I always grow the most are red and golden Marconi. Early thick walled big peppers and can be used for anything.
I've had great success growing banana peppers,, but I've always grown the hot variety. In terms of heat, they fall somewhere between jalapenos and serranos. By far, my favorite pepper is the cowhorn. They grow about as long as a banana, but they're not as big around. They're the hottest pepper I grow, but they're also the tastiest and among the most productive.. I still have a couple jars I canned in October 2019.
I grew the first 2 plants you mentioned this year, aplenty. more peppers than I needed and 2 great strong plants.
They’re really productive!
Gotta plant at least two of these next season! Thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
You are a doll! So encouraging and very informative. I'm waiting for my bells to change color and in the meantime my peckerhead birds have gotten 3 . I planted Hungarian yellow also. We usually buy boxes or gunny sacks of the Hatch green chili's right about now, roast them, cover when cool slide the skin off and bag and freeze.
One of my favorites for fall hot sauce making is Sugar Rush Peach! Baccatums set fruit late, and they all ripen around the same time once the heat breaks in late sumner! Very fruity and sweet with pronounced but short lived heat and a non-descript tropical aftertaste. I also love most Paprika varieties for roasting and stuffing with cheese. I ditched Jalapeño for some of the Hatch and Numex varieties, and have no regrets. Ashe County Pimento is my go to for early setting and prolific sweet red peppers, especially for the northern climates. An odd ball variety to look for seeds is the CGN 21500. One of my favorites, it has roughly half the heat of an orange habanero, and tastes much better with almost no detectable floral or soap flavor! As mentioned earlier, Ill second Shishito for an all around best variety. Prolific, and great grilled, smoked or stir fried at any stage!
I feel same way on peppers. Only bell i found worth the space is "King of north" bell pepper ..it really pumps them out from july right till frost where i am in southern new england. Another great and versatile heavy producer pepper worth some real estate is the "yum yum"/ lunchbox ..great in salad ,great popper pepper and just snacking on as watering
1st time here Dude You Rock! Thank You Beautiful video
That hardened-off hot cherry pepper is 👏!
It’s amazing to watch it happen. I wonder how big they can get in a tropical area? I bet they can grow into tree-like bushes over years.
I found this video got me really excited. I got a little pepper game going now butI'm a rookie so to speak but with this I'm really upping my pepper game next year. Awesome brother thanks
Peppers are great plants to learn on. They're productive, disease resistant and can really tolerate heat. Hot peppers also have very few pests for some reason 😂 Growing peppers is what taught me how to garden on my own. They were the first things I ever grew by myself.
@@TheMillennialGardener thanks again I'm doing good but next year you gave me a new plan...I'm excited. I'm in Texas...I guess I'll have to wait till spring?
Is that the banana ring peppers...I love them pickled to put on sandwiches❤....love your channel....thank you
Yep! I think this comment is a double, and I responded to the other.
I've really been enjoying your content. I'm on the other side of North Carolina in the foothills at Polk county near lake lure. If you are a spice fan, try a Carolina reaper not to eat raw, tear up and not enjoy. But I take all my fruit and dry them then grind it up into a powder. I generally get a mason jars hole at the end of the season. And it is well enough to last me and many friends till the next year. Only takes a little sprinkle or a partial spoonful in a giant chili batch. If used wisely it can give good heat multiple times out of one single pepper.
Let garden salsa peppers mature to bright red. Great base for hot sauce to add hotter varieties if you like. Good after roasting for sauce. One of my favs, too.
That cherry pepper sounds interesting. I try at least one new pepper per year, just for the fun of it and I think I'll add cherry pepper to the line up for next year or maybe even this fall if I can get seeds right now. This year I tried Beaver Dam for the first time and am impressed. A bit hot (for me) and a bit sweet. I split them in half and stuffed with goat cheese, chopped sun dried tomatoes and chopped bacon. Baked off till goowy. Yum! Thanks for sharing your pepper picks.
