- How To Grow Jalapenos From Seeds - Starting Seeds
In this video we take a look at how to grow jalapenos from seeds indoors. We love growing peppers here in our backyard garden. Jalapenos are one of our favorites for cooking so we grow several of them. It is incredibly easy to grow jalapenos from seed. It is as simple as getting seed, some soil mix and putting the seed in the soil mix. I use the double cup method because it works great for starting pepper seeds indoors.
*I now only use Pro-Mix Potting Mix*

Do you grow jalapenos? What's your favorite variety?
Give you an update. So as always the jalapeños are just thriving, my poblanos are really coming together and are producing. Bell pepper plant just sprouted but waiting on the other three to come up. The reapers are growing nicely can't wait for them to produce. My scorpions ( hopefully that's what they are) tiny but one root died. The ghost peppers wow from nothing to flowers everywhere and peppers popping up all over. It's really producing. Out of nowhere I am very happy with its production. Now my tomato plant is producing nicely but it getting that blossom end rot. I looked it up and it seems to be a calcium problem. What is a good calcium provider I can use to cure it
That's awesome! I'm glad to hear its going good. Have a great one!
Gonna try "orange" jalapenos
Why can’t u use the seeds from the actual jalapeño? Why buy when u get free seeds inside the jalapeño?
I'm actually doing this it's so simple I got some jalapeno pepper seeds from my cousin so I'm doing this this year I love my jalapeno peppers I put them I almost everything
I just been throwing all my jalapeno seed along the fence and hoping they grow on their own. I won't be mad if they don't but if God blesses me with free jalapenos I'll be very great full.
Howz those jalapeños going homes?
In my first successful attempt to grow Jalapeños (fairly cold climate here), I molded a seeding tray by pressing a few layers of tin foil in a egg box, filled that with soil, planted the seeds and placed it on top of my ancient gas heater, right above the pilot light. At that time of the year, and because I have the blood of the penguin, the heater didn't really had to be on stand-by anymore, but I left it on long enough for the seeds to germinate.
I'm starting a new batch, so I checked the Ol' tube for more tips.
Long story short, that trick of using the radiant heat of your fridge is ingenious, got a tray snug and warm up there. Thank you!
I started my jalapeno babies in a paper towel before moving them to potting soil. I didn't need 3 solo cups or crazy mixes. It's very happy 😊
Awesome video! I just grew an orange tree from seed which is about 3 months old now and is doing great. I love Jalepeno and will be trying this method and filming the progress as well! Thanks!
This was awesome!!! Starting right now with your double cup method!
I bought some jalapeño starts this year from Home Depot. They are doing real well. The error of my ways was buying starts I think. It will be a lot more economical and satisfying to start from seeds. It is ok, it has been fun to grow. The garden has been more fun than I thought it would be. Thinking about all the things I am going to do next year. Thanks for video!
Going to try growing Jalapeños come spring, your video was very helpful, thank you sir!
I love your cup method. I’m definitely going to do it.
I'm new to garden i am going to try to grow a few things. Think you for doing these videos 😀
Thanks John appreciate it all your help
Good to see you back!!
Thanks Damian! It has been a busy summer to say the least. I'm ready to start rolling out more videos about my new garden space as well as a new project that I will announce soon. Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
Great ideas!! Thanks!
Thanks for the video and yes I am growing jalapenos this year. Tam seeds from True leaf
I’ve been unsuccessful getting my seeds to sprout, I will try this method 🙌🏻 thank you!
Use the seeds from red peppers
Wow. I love Jalapeno I wish put in plant 😁
Genius, thanks for advice
Hey! I am going to grow some this summer, i don't know what variety though, i took the seeds from a store bought green Jalapeño. I usually germinate the seeds in some paper towel and switch them to soil once they germinate. Worked well for the scotch bonnets and bird's eye i tried last year(and tomatoes) . I want to try jalapeños this year because they are less hot and give bigger fruits. Thanks for the video, buddy!
great tips...thanks!
Very nice tutorial. This is pretty much exactly how I do it as well. I believe I am growing the exact seeds you have there. Gotta love MIgardner seeds!
Thanks! It is hard to beat MIGardener! Great seeds at a great price!
Mlgardner doesn't isolate his seeds I wouldn't waste my money if I was you remember you get what you pay for
Been growing lime trees in my house...1st year was good, 2nd, not good..3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th are amazing...got it down packed.
I just did this today!!
This helped a lot thank you 🤎
Thanks friend
Thanks Great videos
Great video, thanks. Started this year, stay at home dad now and growing Veggies. Lol
Thanks man! Nice method :)
love the yellow jalapenos
Good idea! Double cups and zip bags.
I am actually going to try to grow from fresh produce. I've never had luck with these but I'm going to try your method. Hopefully I can get some going.
the same over here. never worked with seeds from fresh jalapenos - not fresh seeds, not dried seeds...
TY for your video. I’ve been watching everything I can about starting peppers from seed. I’ve started some of the big jalapeños from seeds from last year. (Also planted seeds from the hottest banana pepper I’ve ever had) They’ve sprouted now, and I’m wondering, when do you make your selection of the one you want to keep? Also my biggest seedling is growing on the very side of the cup and I thought that should be my pick, but there’s no dirt on one side of the cup it’s growing on. Should I pick this one anyway being it’s the biggest one? TY & God Bless 😸
I’m a new sub from South Africa.. your vids are awesome and to the point.. I’m a first time grower .. I’m growing golden and red cayenne.. jalapeño..Scott’s bonnet..white hubonero .. choc/red/orange/sweet peppers.. birds eye..and then I picked some chilies of a plant up in Swaziland that was pretty hot and fruity.. so all your vids are coming in pretty handy.. cool.. thanx

Thank you so much for the kind words and the support! That is awesome and I hope that you have a great season and harvest. Make sure to keep us posted on how it goes. Have a great day!
Thanks for the informative video, do we need to water the seeds while they are in that ziplock bag thing??? Thanks in anticipation
You sir are awesome
Thank
I have used this technique, it works soo well. Thanks for sharing you knowledge with us!
It does work well. Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
Great tips John!
We might be growing jalapenos. They're mystery seeds, so we won't know until they fruit. 😆👍
I can't wait to see what kind of peppers you have growing over there. The suspense! We love growing peppers! If you ever need any other peppers - shoot me a message!
What did they turn out to be?
Trying to seed some Jalapeno Gigantia for first time its March 2020 in san antonio texas little late on my seeding but hey better late than never. Temp already hot as hell in full sun . Yes we be living in hell in Texas. Gotta love it.
Thanks for the great video. I've been struggling to get jalapenos to grow from seed. All others came up, just jalapenos giving me trouble.
Hi there! Doing my first indoor jalapeño plant and using this method! So how often do I need to remove the bag and mist the soil or bag while I wait for the seeds to germinate? - Thank you!
Did you ever find the answer to your question? I'm about to start this method but also have the question on watering.
Once the seed has sprouted, how long should I wait to transfer to a planter box I have built?
Probably immediately or within a couple days. Once they’ve sprouted they are ready to grow. Just my assumption.
I bought a pack a while back and just planted them outside and only time they were watered was with rain and they all grew
Awesome! How are they doing now? Keep us updated! Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
I’m using a hanging planter. Can I use Saran Wrap on top. What is the purpose of the zip lock bag?
Thank you for this video! Do I need to water the seeds, or does the second cup make it “self watering”? When should I remove the zip lock bags?
I had the same question
The double cup method was a huge success!!! Any tips or videos on moving tp pots? Thank you!
Check out my transplanting video -->th-cam.com/video/L0W13dEXato/w-d-xo.html . This process is the same. Good luck and let me know how it goes.
do i have to start with a box or could i use my garden outside first
Really helpful - I've had houseplants for years but I started germinating my first peppers last week. The jalapeños look ready to pot already, the Carolina reapers definitely need more time.
I use a mix of perlite, bark and soil for my potting mix for everything. Would just perlite and soil be suitable for peppers?
Hi Eden! I used the seeds from the jalapenos. Is that a bad thing? My first time was just experimenting to see if any would grow. Nothing yet. It's only a week.
i love jalapenos
Great tip, my daughters name is Eden!
I love you, when I saw your video my saliva jumped out from my mouth
Hey Jhn just found your channel, love it! I just started my jalapenos really late in the season, we get frost where i live will the seedlings survive under the porch or in a small poly tunnel? Or should i try and put them inside?
Start inside like he said and after leaves sprout slowly a few hours in full sun keep them outside. Do not transplant until they stems get stronger.
I trust this guy
Thanks for watching!
Hmmm, I’m all about how to grow all fruit & veg full of nutrients and as a a grower I achieve that. But just let me say you’re doing a great job with the chillis there slim. Really doing a good job of looking after your body!
Thanks for watching!
I love what you did here! I think I am gonna try this method come spring 2020 (aarrggg that sounds so far away LOL). Thanks! - Mike
I use this method every year to start all of my pepper seeds. It works great! I have already started some of my peppers for 2020. I will have a video coming up on that soon. Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
AnimalGem14 LMAFOO SO TRUE
WoW looks so Easy I would like to try and grow from seed but I have 2 question. First why didn't you use seeds from the jalapeno. Second I'm in NY when would be the best time to start to grow the plant I will be putting on top of the fridge but we are heading in to fall pretty soon it's mid August now thanks
How often do you water it in the bag?
What is the Best Time of the year to grow these Jalapeno Peppers. Thank you.
I been successful using seeds from the red jalapenos instead of the green.
Green jalapenos will eventually turn red usually after jalapeño not good to eat no more
I'm growing some right now, the variety is whatever I got from the grocery store. I just removed the seeds and ended up with several plants (lots of the seeds were not viable, but some were!).
It can work that way, but I've preferred to just buy a solid heirloom with a fruit I love as many of the options in grocery stores are some form of hybrid where every generation of peppers from the seeds may or may not be a consistent or even good result (that's if they're even viable seeds that will sprout.) Starting out with a tasty heirloom variety and practicing some simple garden layout planning to limit or prevent cross pollination with other genetically similar plants means I harvest thousands of viable seeds for the same type of pepper every year. I picked up my favorite heirloom variety of pepper at a seed exchange in our neighborhood. That was several years ago, and the pepper I'm still growing taste identical to the first set I grew.
@@PSPSMITH2022 yes i have limited space ideal for peppers, so mine are in pots and are near other kinds of peppers. So far so good though.
Hey i have a question how long should i wait to transport to the pot
Do you water them from the top or add water in the bottom cup?
What comes after that?
If using seeds from a jalapeño pepper how long do you need to let the seeds dry?
2024 first time grower and doing tan jalapeños and orange jalapeños hope it works out for me can you do a video on what to expect with pest that sort of thing and feeding it if it’s required
What happens if I just put it in the ground with the seed and water it ?
Do I put water in the bottom of the second cup? If not what is the meaning of the reservoir.
I put a bead in the bottem cup so it has more of a reservoir of water on the botteo
Okay, okay. I like your system. How often do you have to replenish the water reservoir?
I wondered the same thing the first time I tried it. Ended up just watering from the top and filling the reservoir. Most of the plants turned out great.
How often should we water?
I grew jalapeño but they were sweet, not a bit of spicy at all. What did I do wrong? I did buy seeds from home depot
I am excited to grow jalapeño peppers this year! Could I grow using seeds from a jalapeño pepper I bought at the grocery store? I believe it is from the Mucho Nacho variety.
They got to b red..for tha seed to germinate
Will they produce the fruit though
💚
I'm growing early jalapeno's, I got my seed from Sow True Seed
Nice! We love some jalapenos! I am growing several new varieties of them in our 2020 garden as well as 1-2 overwinter in the grow room. Thanks for watching!
Exactly how I do mine as well, I just don't double cup it.
When should I start my seeds?
im sorry, i just can't get over the concept of a shirt that says "STI Employee Appreciation Week."
LOL I thought the same thing. I guess that makes us 14 all over again. Great video, though.
What about planting from new fruits?
Im starting some jalapenos from seeds i took from some fresh peppers i got from a food bank.
I have a jalapeño plant that is just sprouting peppers like crazy. But my ghost pepper plant still hasn't produced. It's flowering and growing nicely. But hasn't produced. Is there anything I can do to see some results
Hey Tino, you may try to stimulate the ghost pepper flowers to see if that will help. Peppers are self-pollinating but it wouldn't hurt to help them out. Just gently shake the branch or use a q-tip to pollinate the flower.
@@BackyardEden okay, I've seen that before. I'll give it a try
@@BackyardEden had a question lol. What a surprise right 😂😁. Well I planted some Trinidad scorpions a while back. First I germinated them paper towel and ziplock method. Three to four weeks and nothing. So I decided to just plant them in a solo cup. Nothing, so today I decided to throw them out. But before I did I slowly and carefully started dumping out the dirt and to my surprise found two seeds and 4 sprouts close to the bottom.
My question is is it best to take them out and transplant them to another cup and plant them or did I make a mistake by taking them out. I was worried because they were close to the bottom that they would of died. My guess is I left them out and it rained really hard that the seeds got pushed down close to the bottom. They look really healthy even on has like a leaf already forming. How do I replant them. Should I put the seeds in the soil with the growth outside the ground or just put them in until they come out the ground on their own. I'm gonna check your page see if you have anything on planting germinated seeds thanks for any advice I get
Hey Tino! You can transplant them to another cup using the method I show in this video -->th-cam.com/video/5RulvFeX8qU/w-d-xo.html!
@@BackyardEden do you have any videos on bringing the plants indoors. I have all my plants in 5 gallon buckets can I bring those inside when the winter comes. I live in Chicago and they won't survive the winter. It's either that or saving the seeds from my small crop. Any video on saving seeds for next year
*Stupid question* 1 seed will yield 1 plant? I bought too many seed packets and now have dozens of 1 inch sprouts 😂. I supposed I will have to separate each into their own pot? I will use double cup to start my seeds next yr!
I have one plant. Be takin care of it for 2-3 months. I have over 24 peppers. 4 are turning red the rest are pick able and have a ton of new buds. And yes they are hot jalapeños but the only regret is I don’t have more plants. But I’m going to for sure
Use the seeds out of the jalapeño itself and then u wouldn’t have to buy the seeds.
Yes, that sounds better. Some jalapeños are not even spicy. So when you find one that is save the seeds to that one and plant it. At least that's what I plan to do.
Nice video, also nice beard 👍
What about bell peppers?
i don't have a spcial light. What then? Just use the sun?
can you grow with the seeds from the jalapeno itself?
Because the peppers are picked green, the seeds inside are immature. You have to leave the peppers to fully ripen on the vine to get mature seeds. You might get lucky with the odd one, but if you plant seeds from a green pepper, most will fail. If you can find a mature red pepper you should be OK.
That's what I did. Wife made bacon wrapped poppers, I saved the seeds. Put them in water and remove all the ones that float (most of them). Some of the ones that sink are viable. I'm planting like 15 or so seeds per cup and some sprouted. Interestingly only 2 of the 5-6 cups seemed to get sprouts, but multiple plants in the two cups that did. I imagine store bought seeds work better but no loss if this didn't work other than a little time.
my problem is not knowing how often to water them once theyve sprouted
Can I just start this with the seeds out of a store bought jalapeño?
i just got a jar and a jalapeno and got all the seeds inside it and threw some dirt in the jar and all the seeds lol
Just planted jalapenos
Awesome! Hows it going?
I have a lot of flowers on my jalapeno plant but no peppers
How old are they ?
Can you use the seeds from Jalapenos you buy from the store?
David yes
Yes, absolutely! You will have better success with peppers that are ripe. If you get them at the store - try to get some that are changing colors and if you want to force ripen them. Try putting them into a brown paper bag for few days to help them ripen. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the help!
You forgot to mention to wet the starting mix before planting while it’s still in the tub . If you don’t the mix doesn’t hydrate well . If you plant in cups first the mix won’t get wet very well it will try to float out of cup . Sound trivial but it’s important . Add water a little at a time to tub and mix well with hand until you have a damp crumbly mix , you will have a much more pleasant planting experience . I noticed his was already wet with water but failed to mention to do it first . Just trying to help
He does say the mix was pre-moistened in the video. 5:01
Why not seeds from a pepper? Thanks for the video 👍🏼
Most store bought peppers are green well they aren’t really ripe until red green pepper seeds may not germinate . If you grow them leave a few on plant to turn red and ripe even spoiled as long as they are red
@@charlesroberts6490 so if I use seeds from fresh jalapeño I would have to let the pepper turn red,THEN I can plant the seeds,nice they’re dried..??
New here
So you just spray it that one time? 🌱🤔
No, you have to keep it moist under the bag until they germinate. Once they germinate you take the bag off and keep them water using the bottom cup. The soil will naturally wick the water up from the bottom cup.
rule of thumb? why not make it rule of wrist? anybody?
I chose the jedi jalapeno
