I'm fortunate to work at a restaurant. I get jalapenos, peppers, tomatoes, onions, potatoes, blueberries and whatever else I grab. Also, unlimited scraps, coffee grounds and eggshells for compost. Don't underestimate a cook job.; We have clear top, to go boxes and I can fill them with soil from outside, plant 12 jalapeno seeds and toss them in the back window of my car and they'll germinate in a week. Our pickles, butter, salt and sugar all come in food grade 5 gal buckets. Last year I planted six of them with Russets and Yukon Golds I got from work. I'm telling you, if you want to garden for free, get a restaurant job! Great videos too. I've been watching for years!!
One thing I've noticed, whether I plant red or green peppers, I get green every year. I'm guessing it's the dominate trait or maybe cross pollinated at the farm. Any one know?
@@MrFooqair I have been told that red, yellow, orange, etc peppers from the grocery store or food service suppliers are hybrids. You only get the hybrid fruit one growing season (that was the season your original pepper grew.) After that, you get one of the original parent stock peppers (usually green). But I'm new to vegetable gardening, so I may be wrong. But I've never been wrong before!😂
Hello! ALL peppers start out green and can be eaten at that time. They will "ripen" to their true color when allowed to stay on the plant long enough. Happy gardening!!
@@MrFooqairMost peppers start out green and ripen to red, orange, yellow, etc. I have even grown a pepper that starts out a white/cream color and ripens to purple!
Glad that I tuned in.. I'm in need of doing pepper starts for a friend of mine who is going to be out of town for the next 6 weeks. Yes.. I volunteered to start all of her veggies.
I didn't know this either until I heard Brian talk about it in one of his videos. I doubled up my jalapenos and poblanos like this in grow bags last season and feel like they produced quicker and better than when I had them growing by themselves.
@@shibafan1883 I have 25gal growbags, so I was able to space them about 12" apart, but I could see that varying between pepper varieties. You could experiment and try planting a pair closer together and another pair further apart and see which pair performs better.
So far all of the gardening videos I've watched this year have shown people putting more than one seed per space.. interesting that you've never seen it. My family has done this for years, it's a good idea for sure!
I learned two things from this video. I’m in Zone 7B. I started my peppers in early February because many of them were super hot and I knew they would take about a month to germinate. I patiently waited 6 weeks. Nothing happened. I was so frustrated. Then I came across this video, and I saw your method of using the H202 and paper towel method. With nothing to lose, I tried again. This time the seeds sprouted 7 to 10 days later. I just planted them in pots and waiting for the plants to pop up. I’ll let you know. The second thing I learned was that plants are happy in pairs so when I planted the sprouts I made sure to plant them in pairs. I didn’t know that. Thank you for teaching me these two things. Hopefully I’ll have a harvest of lots of spicy, exotic peppers to for homemade hot sauces.
Walmart's Hyper Tough 4' shop lights can also be a great deal. They have a 5,500-lumen unit for $20, and a 3,200-lumen unit for $15, and they're both 5,000k. I'm using an older version that's 5,000-lumen, and they have served me well.
I have harvested pepper seeds that I plant. I harvest them only because they were delicious and I wanted to grow more. I start mine in small restaurant plastic containers so I know what grows on and can transplant them to 3 inch pots once they get adult leaves. I just never knew I needed to start them this early. Thanks for that Brian. I keep them watered on the heat mat and everything seems to grow well. I use a small plastic fork to dig up and move the plants to gently transplant them with little harm. Just one more wonderful video Brian. May the Lord keep blessing you and yours.
I’ve been enjoying Sugar Rush Peach peppers, Bakers Creek- prolific, great color, medium heat with sweetness, turned out perennial here in sacramento and what a great name!
I followed your paper towel method (from your earlier video) for germinating yellow bell pepper seeds that I saved from a fresh pepper that I was using in a salad about a month ago. I am also growing Marconi Red peppers, from purchased seeds, which are kind of longish and curvy. Now I have them in plastic cups with the first 2 leaves showing. Depending on the results, I may try some Jalapeno peppers next year. This first-time growing pepper from seed experiment, prompted me to invest into two heat mats with thermostat. In a couple of weeks, I will be using those heat mats again, to germinate my saved Chocolate Cherry and grape tomato seeds.
Both! Having a small backyard, decided to grow more peppers (a lot of fruit in a smaller space). I do the lightbulb “grow lights”, and then if there is a sunny-ish day, I put them out to get sun. Gives them good sunlight and started hardening them off!
First time growing seeds. I already had a. 4 Tier rack. It is 3 ft long. I bought shop lights. Works great. They were only $17 dollars each. I think heat mats are a game changer. Tomatoes germinated in 4 days. Peppers in 6 days. My favorite are sweet banana bounty peppers. Great video. Sharing with sisters ❤️🌺
I started my peppers 2/20. Last frost date is mid April. They are almost ready for their second set of leaves. I never knew about soaking them in hydrogen peroxide. Thanks.
I grow a mix- Hoss Seed Colossis Jalapeño, Serrano and a few 'new-to-me' tiny pickling peppers. Then Ajvarski and Lesya sweet drying peppers, Shishito, one red bell (I forgot the name) and a Habenada (no heat)... I usually always try something new...!
Brian you're the best! We can't grow peppers here-too cold at night-even the farmers market guy doesn't start selling them until end of summer, but I always learn from your videos!
Brian, A good way to discourage fungus gnats: steep Mosquito Bits or Mosquito Dunks in the water you use to moisten the soil & later water your plants w/. It contains BT (Bacillus thuringiensis), harmless to people, pets, & beneficial critters, but deadly to the larval forms of mosquitoes, fungus gnats, drain flies, & numerous other pest species. 😊
Thanks for mentioning this. To clarify, the BT in mosquito dunks is BTi (israelensis). This is not the same as the BTk (kurstaki) used for controlling leave-chewing insect larva. BTk is ineffective against fungus gnats.
Recently found your channel and am loving the content… thank you. Poblanos are my new favorite pepper and I’m planning to try growing them for the first time this year.
We like a blend of sweet and hot. This will be our third year with peppers in our Alaskan greenhouse. Last year was a complete bust; coldest wettest summer ever! So far, one of my fave are the lunchbox and we are doing Bolivian carrot pepper. Challenging to find peppers for a short season, but who doesn’t love to google and explore? 😂
Brian, Some of us are still using old T8/T5 compact florescent systems. Be sure to let people know that, in contrast to LEDs, the efficacy of these bulbs diminish over time &, thus, will need to be kept lower w/ each year of use to make up for the loss. 😊
I've started jalapenos, banana, and bell peppers. Um in Michigan so mine are about 2" tall and looking good. I tried your buddy planting last year and hot great harvests.
BOTH! but i grow the MOST hot peppers and I overwinter my favs in my greenhouse. I started mine in january in zone 4. I love my habaneros and ghosts the most.
I hope I get to start some seeds soon, it will depend how much energy I have to move the stuff around to make space for them to grow. Thank you Brian! Blessings 💞🙏🏻
I never put peppers in moist towel. But may try this year. Although I always do it with watermelon seeds, that's the only way I got watermelon to germinate. Nice video
Definitely a hot chili pepper 🌶️ fan!! Cayenne and jalapeño are my favorite and each year we smoke them and I make bottles of hot sauce. We’re on our 3rd round of planting several different types (about 7-10 varieties) of pepper seeds in our greenhouse. Some germinated, some didn’t. We’ve had more struggle this year than any, except with our own seeds that I saved from last year’s peppers. Love your videos and all the helpful, educational information!! Thank you. 😊
I plant sweet peppers and hot pepper every year. I love to can salsas and pickle peppers. I also can pepper jelly. It’s enjoyable for me and my family benefits from it too. Love your channel, glad I found your channel. Thanks 😊
Love the little sweet peppers in sallads and cooked in tacos. Bell peppers give me bad heartburn. Love the heat from chilis. Favorites are pueblo green chilis and tiny ones called Apache. Thanks, Brian!
I love peppers hot or sweet my favorite are Red Marconi's, Aji Dulce and Habaneros and of course l grow Bell peppers Cali Wonders, Big Bertha, Yolo Wonders or any Bell pepper seeds l can get my hands on! Lol😂
Gotta have jalepeños and usually bell peppers. My peppers always germinate quickly but I started them extra early this year because I want them to go into the ground running!
Another great video. My favorite pepper for cooking with stir fry, etc. is the serrano. My favorite pepper for adding to my okra pickling is any pepper except a ghost pepper. I start my peppers the first week in January in central California. I planted 12 varieties of peppers this year(74 in total). This is my first year growing Jimmy Nardello, Salsa Hybrid, Carmen Hybrid and Candy Cane Sweet Chocolate. Your videos are great for new folks learning. I am a seasoned grower and had the opportunity years ago to take a tour of Bonnie Plants and how they do it. Never give up!
I love all things peppers. Last year I fell in love with a sweet pepper- Shishito. Have extras in my freezer from last year and sauté up a handful often. Also dehydrated some for a wonderful chili powder. Hot peppers I love too many to pick one.
I’ve been growing paprika for a couple of years now. I hadn’t realized that was a pepper, and I was so happy when I learned that I could grow my own. I love paprika, and it’s even better from my own garden. I didn’t know about double planting the seeds, so will definitely do that this time around. Thanks for the tip!
Started some peppers last year indoors, and then in early fall I dug up the plants and prepped them for the winter. They have been sitting in the cool garage getting some occasional water and food. Will soon bring them outside to get some warmth and sun and revive. First time doing this, heard it gives you quite a head start on the growing season for peppers. Hoping it works. Got some new peppers started this year, one is a Paprika pepper.
Hatch Chile Peppers from Sandia Seed are THE absolute best as far as flavor goes. I was excited this year to get some Hatch peppers that were labeled as mild to go along with my spicy ones. I freeze dry a lot of the peppers and use them all winter on burgers or in beans and scrambled eggs and anywhere else I want some great flavor. I also make salsa and pepper chutney's etc with them.
I love growing peppers. They love 9b Central Cal temps. My favorite are (Uh! So Many!) Pepperoncini because I love pickled peppers. My favorite Bell is the mini orange bell. They are a smaller variety full of flavor and very sweet. They rarely make it to the house- I love them that much! Have you heard of Nada-Peno? Those are a really flavorful peppers for salsa - if you're not a fan of heat. Thanks for another informative- awesome video Brian!
Been using the Gardenings Supply trays for many years. We see some on TH-cam that are anti bottom watering. We wouldn't do it any other way. We also use the grow light system from Gardeners Supply as well. We do not germinate or seeds via your method. Although yours definitely works. Under the domes this year The various Peppers all germinated between 6-10 days. You kind of made a face as to hot chile (YES that is how you spell it! We will be putting out 72 XXX Lumbre plants in the garden this year. We will also be planting 20 something mixed peppers. Jalapeno, serranos, poblanos and more. As well as twenty something Bell Peppers. You know sometimes culture may play into how hot one enjoys their chile!
Great info.. had difficulty with my ghost and habaneros initially but now there doing good.. I'm in Wisconsin so I started them in early march recently transplanted into one gallon pots and will grow them in 5 gallon cloth pots outside.. they are slow starters , much slower than my tomatoes.. new sub
I am using countertop hydroponic systems for peppers and tomatoes. The growth has been fantastic, and transplanting to soil has been no problem, just keep well watered the first couple of weeks. They look like I purchased them from a nursery. The Mufga 18 pod is great for seed starting.
So far my favorite pepper is the mad hatter. Very very mild heat but the flavour is delicious, so fruity and tropical tasting. Decently thick walls and produces very well. It converted my wife from a pepper hater to a pepper lover 😎
I over wintered 2 Habanada peppers but only looks like 1 made it. I also have 4 Peach Ghost peppers about 2” high in the starting cells and some Jimmy Nardellos and a mixture of sweet peppers. I prefer the “snack box” size and don’t really care for really hot. I’m just growing the Ghost Peppers for fun and to give to friends that like that sort of thing.
I purchased a couple of those tray this year and they so good! I often forget to water so they have saved me and my seedlings!
Yes! 💯
The link to it doesn’t open for me

Thanks for teaching me that peppers do well doubled up. You are the only one I have heard that from. I greatly appreciate you and your wife!
I didn't know this either until I heard Brian talk about it in one of his videos. I doubled up my jalapenos and poblanos like this in grow bags last season and feel like they produced quicker and better than when I had them growing by themselves.
The Rusted Garden is a big fan of planting peppers doubled up too!
How close do you plant them in the final containers?

Thanks for educating us on not needing specific grow lights, so long as the bulb has the proper Lumens and Kelvin.
I’ve been enjoying Sugar Rush Peach peppers, Bakers Creek- prolific, great color, medium heat with sweetness, turned out perennial here in sacramento and what a great name!
I've always grown two pepper plants together in 5 gallon containers. Works like a charm
Serrano, chiltepin, small bead chilies. We grind in stone mortor with red tomatoes. Yum!
New Mexico Big Jim peppers are fantastic! Lots of meat when you roast and peel! This is a very helpful video, thanks mucho!
Didn't know pepper's are fine with a growing buddy and I don't have to thin them out. I always learn something new from you. Thank you 😊

Thank you!!! I learned that I am just going to buy the seedlings at my local nursery this year again! ❤❤❤
Love BOTH green and chilli peppers. Must haves!
I like all peppers. There hasn't been one my family hasn't enjoyed. But really love jalapenos and bellpeppers. Use them in almost every meal.
Brian,
Will the 50/50 hydrogen peroxide/H2O mix also work w/ other seeds that need soaking before planting (i.e. Nasturtium)?
Thank you. 😊

12:20 he recommends you roll up the sock and put it in your left or right pocket depending on how you swing.
Well dang. I wish you would have uploaded this video in January. Appreciate you sharing this.
Both peppers are good. We do a verity of peppers every year.

Like both. Mostly sweet yellow, red or green.
Getting close to one million subs! How exciting!
I did not know about the soaking method. I have grown for a few years and I am going to try this. I grow tons of pepper. Thanks
Brian,
Some of us are still using old T8/T5 compact florescent systems. Be sure to let people know that, in contrast to LEDs, the efficacy of these bulbs diminish over time &, thus, will need to be kept lower w/ each year of use to make up for the loss. 😊
Thank you! As a beginner, this was super helpful.
I like all kinds of peppers. Thank you for this information. Love your videos. Keep doing what your doing
I tried the paper towel method and it worked great! Sprouted in a week and they are going great!
Sweet peppers, especially Jimmy Nardello variety.
Both hot and sweet. I haven’t tried enough varieties to have a favorite.
This was extremely helpful. Straight to the point! Thank you so much.
I've started jalapenos, banana, and bell peppers. Um in Michigan so mine are about 2" tall and looking good. I tried your buddy planting last year and hot great harvests.
BOTH! but i grow the MOST hot peppers and I overwinter my favs in my greenhouse. I started mine in january in zone 4. I love my habaneros and ghosts the most.
Already starting my peppers! 😍
Both. For sweet peppers, I like Ajvarski. I haven't decided on a good jalapeno yet
Definitely love both
I hope I get to start some seeds soon, it will depend how much energy I have to move the stuff around to make space for them to grow.
Thank you Brian! Blessings 💞🙏🏻
Soak in peroxide??? I didn't know that trick, thanks! Hope you make it to a million. You're almost there!
Excellent info…easy to understand and comprehensive…thanks! ❤️👍
My favorite peppers are, Serrano, Chile Guerito & red bell peppers.
Fresno red chili peppers are my fav .. that's what i grow mostly .. just am outstanding all around pepper
I never put peppers in moist towel. But may try this year. Although I always do it with watermelon seeds, that's the only way I got watermelon to germinate. Nice video
All of them! I love Thai food so enjoy growing chili 🌶️.
Both! Mostly mild,hot. Jalapenos and shishito
Definitely a hot chili pepper 🌶️ fan!! Cayenne and jalapeño are my favorite and each year we smoke them and I make bottles of hot sauce.

I grew jalapeño’s this past summer and loved them. I will definitely keep these plants going for next summer!
I just started my peppers! Thanks

Awesome as always. Thanks
I love poblano peppers. My poblano and jalapeños just sprouted.
Hottttt peppers!!
My fav is the Trinidad Scorpion pepper
Sweet red peppers are my favorite.
I bought a few of those seed starting trays! They’re great! It really helped me keep the right about of moisture on the seeds!

So far my favorite pepper is the mad hatter. Very very mild heat but the flavour is delicious, so fruity and tropical tasting. Decently thick walls and produces very well. It converted my wife from a pepper hater to a pepper lover 😎
I over wintered 2 Habanada peppers but only looks like 1 made it. I also have 4 Peach Ghost peppers about 2” high in the starting cells and some Jimmy Nardellos and a mixture of sweet peppers. I prefer the “snack box” size and don’t really care for really hot. I’m just growing the Ghost Peppers for fun and to give to friends that like that sort of thing.
