- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- The video shows nine rows of peppers planted two feet apart in both directions. Each row contains about 100 peppers. they produce 200 to 250 pounds of peppers each week.
I am enjoying your video for a number of reasons
1. How you communicate
2. How you educate
3. Lastly, the myth that farmers are people who never went to school and can't do anything else but til the soil. Thank you. I'm definitely a new fan, but you're planting my favorite pepper.
Respect to you and thanks means a lot.
Hi Samuel, I watched the sweet pepper video and I have a small request of you. Could you do a small container garden if time allows. I don't have your space, but I can do flowers pot gardening. Thank you. Tanya. By the way, your daughter is wonderful.
@@ttthegr8 Thanks very much Miss Hall. I only plant in open field but I want to plant in green house in the future.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 Ok. I'll be here taking tips same way. I appreciate your timely response.
@@ttthegr8 question where are from and what kind of space do you have
So proud of my former classmate! you're an inspiration to alot of youths, hard worker you are.
Thanks very much Julian
I have a short growing season where I live in the US, so my trees only get to about 3 feet before they die off. Your trees are beautiful! 👍🏾
Thanks
All the farming fraternity salutes you Mr. Watson. Clear, concise and very informative.
Respect
Watch this video about 20times alr just love how u break down everything clear for ppl to know u even reply to every comment giving ppl advice on pepper u a real one love your Chanel keep bringing content ppl all over the world watch an admiring ur hard work all the way from Trinidad showing plenty love
Thank Marie I really appreciate your criticism. I will continue to help people all over the world. one love
You're the real deal. I've researched for long and the nutrients you mentioned are spot on. Glad to see your farm doing well. Its so healthy it looks like an apple orchard. Look into growing your own pyrethrin flowers Tanacetum cinerariifolium to kill pest
Thank you for sharing this video. I’m currently doing an experiment with my Fifth form Agricultural Science students on Sweet peppers and spacing
I love this plant. I love scotch bonnet peppers. The most aromatic with the best flavor
More Jamaicans should talk like you, the world can relate to your videos not just a small island.
Respect
Thank you for sharing, this will surely help me testing out the crop.
You are welcome
My goodness, you reply to everyone! Enough respect to you and what you do. Just subscribed and will be watching. I love scotch bonnet peppers or as we call it Cameroun peppers; they have the heat, but most importantly, flavor.
Respect. I'm now planting the West Indian red pepper. Will be posting that soon
The Scientific Research Council (SRC) and the Min of Agri need to invest in youth like Mr Watson who can use his intellect to teach other farmers how to maximize their gains and increase the scale of their production to export levels so that they can bring in some $$$Benjamins into the country.
Respect
Real talk.
True true
Nice. Am making notes
Thanks for sharing these information bro 👊 I would love to visit your farm just to learn more about peppers
You are welcome. I don't have any hot peppers on the farm now just sweet pepper
I samuel am young famer from St.Thomas am watching you and what can plant in between hot peppers
You can plant short term crop like tomatoes
They are from the same family
Very informative, keep up the good work, blessings all over JAMAICAN, much prosperity always 🙏

Your farm is LOVELY 💓
I'm planning on leasing a piece of land to start scotch bonet & sweet peppers as well🙏🏻
Thank you and don,t think about planting get up and start planting. Help is always here. if you are planting hot peppers get the heavier peppers and for sweet peppers get f1 varieties or hybrid peppers. plant with the moon so get an almanac and know your above planting dates.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 THANKS alot i really appreciate this🙏🏻🙏🏻 i'll keep u posted as i go along🙌💪🏽

Glad it was helpful!
Hi dude. I have grown scotch bonnets in my garden, I got my first harvest and tried to dry them on a string like I do my my Asian chillies, but most of them went to rot. Never had that problem with chilli before. Any tips? Much appreciated. Thankyou for the knowledge my man.
When drying scotch bonnet peppers you cut off the fruit off the pepper leaving the seed and stem. Then you place these seeds in the sun in a container to dry. Do not let the rain fall on them or cause them to get wet.
How do I encourage my scotch bonnet to ripen? I'm in Northern United States and am growing mine in doors. My plant has about 3 dozen peppers on it but they're all green
pepper needs heat or warmth to ripen fast
How many months do you reap for including the first reaping when plant is approximately 3 months old. Maybe 5 months? Great video and information. Congratulations.
Respect. Reaping starts at three months and continued up to 12 months after planting
I just subbed to this channel, makes me want to go back to Jamaica, but serious question, can white dudes live in Jamaica or am I gonna get my throat slit?
It does not matter who you are or where you are from or the colour of your skin, once you are not involve in illegal activities you are good. Come and invest in farming . Plant some peppers man.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 Right on! Great response. Yeah my buddy was trying to grow weed there decades ago, sounded rough, I'm into scotch bonnets and Jerk seasonings and cooking, your farm looks nice brother.
@@topfeedcoco yes it looks very good now because I'm planting red peppers tomatoes and pumpkin and they are bearing abundantly.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 I'm going to keep my eye on your channel, you know what you're doing, and you look like you have lots of fun doing it! Can't wait to see how your season goes. I'm growing Scotch Bonnets for the first time ever, even though I've been growing all kinds of stuff for decades.
@@topfeedcoco Respect and happy planting
Your video is very informative. Thank you! I'm not a farmer, I just have 6 Scott Bonnet Pepper Trees. I noticed that the baby plants are yellowish and not growing. Do you have any ideas on how to make them.florish? Many thanks.
Put wood ash , white lime and chicken manure at the root and water for a week and watch them grow
Thanks you so much for this Nice vidéo…. I just want to know the density per hectare of Chili habanero plantation
You are welcome. One hectare can hold 9500 peppers comfortably
What is the width of the rows and how many plants are in each row
About 3.5 feet and I planted about 900 plants
I am about to start this.. how do i get in contact with u
Nice .
i feel lucky to find your channel. I bought land to farm scotch bonnet peppers in Trelawny. I'm wondering if I could visit your farm to get some insight and mentoring.
Where you from and I'm cleaning now to plant west Indian red peppers
I farm in Crawford St. Elizabeth so if you are passing by you can stop by.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 I'm currently in Canada. I bought 11 Acres in Trelawny to farm scotch bonnet peppers. I'm going to be in Ochi for a week starting feb 15th. I don't know if I will have time to visit this trip but will take you up on your offer for sure.

Sulcox to treat leaf spot
Thank you very much
Why are your pepper plants so close together?
They were planted 4 ft apart. I now plant them 6ft
This is soo wonderful, please I need your guidance I am currently preparing 2 hectar of land to plant pepper. Please how can I get to you directly

Good day what can i use for my pepper trees to bear back again fast.
Flowering
Do you use a organic or synthetic form of calcium nitrate?
Synthetic. Its a soluble fertilizer easily dissolved in water
How much is the starting cost?
Whatsap 876337-4561
Good job keep it up ❤
I want to know what the cure is, please let me know
The cure is a pesticide that kills mites
Samuel how can I get the seeds,
I have stopped planting peppers for now I'm planting melons now peppers are for next year and I will have to buy different seeds.
Hi Samuel, first time here. First I must say I love everything about farm and how you timely explain the whole procedure. Can you go indept regarding your fertilizing and how this is administered to the pepper tree. Thanks and one last thing is a WattsApp contact for you and possible an email address.
Check out my fertilizing video on my channel. Best way to fertilize your peppers now. Whatsap 876337-4561
How do you ensure the pepper is fresh before you take it to the market. How do I transport the pappers to 7 hours journey place but also ensure freshness!What’s your recommendation?
ensure you pick your peppers when they are dry, transport them in onion bags to make sure they are well ventilated. when the peppers are been transported ensure they are cool, not locked up in a hot vehicle and they will be fine
Is scotch bonnet a profitable crop to grow ? I'm interested in growing some and supplying local markets n if successful would aim for international market as well
Very profitable but you must seek market first
How much per pound
About 500 Jamaican dollars now
Why do you need black mulch to warm the soil ,in the tropics?
It heats up the soil than normal helping the plants to grow larger faster and gives you larger fruits. It keeps away alot of the weed that would fight your crop which is the main purpose popping your farm weed free
another question, what is or was the lifespan of this pepper?
I stop taking care of it after one year, they were still producing. I planted selected pepper seeds on a new land. Check out the other pepper videos( how to take care of your peppers) and you will see what the peppers are looking like that I had selected from that old field
How can I get seedlings and the farmer contacts.....
Ministry of agriculture and research in Mont pellier St. JAMES
Thank you for the reply, also please do you prune/top your plants
Yes I do when the plants production drops by half
What happens when topping off at a mature stage will the plant only send lateral growth and/or will the top grow back eventually does topping off completely stop the top growth and focus only on lateral growth can it be done at a mature stage
I’m planning on going into pepper production as well. Can you tell me the cost of the plastic mulch in Jamaica?
about $30,000 to $40,000
What is the distance between two plants?
How long can from one tree harvest?
two feet between plants and you will harvest up to a year and a half if you treat plants well
Love it
Thanks
Do your Peppers broth and get affected by the end if year rain?
Don't understand
Great
Thanks
Can you ship to Canada sir? Thank you
No and I'm not planting any Scotch bonnet peppers
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324would you be interested in taking on contracts for advisory work? your knowledge and expertise is immense.
Samuel can you please send me some scotch bonnet seeds, I need to add it to my garden. I can’t get scotchies here in Arizona, so I’m begging you again to help me.
do you have anyone here in Jamaica
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 yes I do, my cousin lives there.
@@hyacinthfisher7619 GIVE HIM MY CONTACT NUMBER 8763374561
What variety are you growing, is it hybrid or open pollinated, if so please name it.
I think they are hybrid but these peppers are crossed with the Jamaican scotch bonnet pepper
@Samuel: how hot are your peppers compared w/ local farmers’? Do u like to eat them??
Peace-
Extremely hot I'm afraid of them so I use with caution. Flavor is awesome but really hot.

Thanks and yes you can reach out for any advice. Will be happy to assist.
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 blessings what blend of fertilizer you use each week from transplant?
@@astoricalletsgo5075 calcium nitrate is applied by it self. Potassium nitrate. Potassium sulphate, mono potassium phosphate, and magnesium sulpate mixed together and given to them every other day
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 respect
Good day sir. I wanna ask at what ratio you apply the "NPK - Potassium nitrate, Potassium sulfate, mono potassium phosphate", "Magnesium sulfate" and "Calcium Nitrate". Thanks in advance.
What's the spacing you have planted these peppers? I'm doing 3feet gap between two plants in a row. Two feet gap between two rows.
2ft between plants and 2ft between the drip lines. Hence each row of pepper is a double row like yours. Three feet is too far
@@samuelfarmboywatson4324 have you ever heard of the Moruga red peppers which is quite popular in Trinidad and Tobago. How's the yield of that pepper? I have seen that it produce quite large pods too. I'm thinking of getting some moruga reds to put on a crop
