Planting Tomatoes & Peppers by the Double-Cup Method

In this episode, we plant tomatoes & pepper seeds using the double-cup method. Two cups containing 3 to 4 seeds of jalapeno peppers and Arctic Rose tomatoes from Fruition Seeds. Eventually, one or two plants will be transplanted into larger containers and grown indoors.

Great video! Those peppers and tomatoes are going to go crazy for that aquarium water! Thanks for the mention!

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

Thanks for showing me the method!

[@jodysappington7008]

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

Thank you!

[@AlmostHomestead]

Nice job on the video.

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

Thank you! They'll get better once I find my voice. Appreciate the nice words!

[@gigglesmomma5543]

Good vids, keep up the good work! I'm learning from you!

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

Thank you! I'll keep trying things and refine the process until I'm happy with them.

[@marcd4144]

You should let your seeds soak in a cup of water for 24hr then plant them. It helps make it easier for the seeds to sprout.

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

I'll give that a try next time! Thanks.

How do you transplant these plants into the ground out of solo cups? The roots will grow out of the bottom and I’m wondering how to get it out of the cup? I’ve been starting tomatoes and peppers in solo cups for years, but one cup and the roots stay contained inside the cup, makes it easy for the plant to come right out. Should I carefully cut the cups?

Need more than one hole in bottom of cup please answer me ok water from the bottom with rocks in the with no holes

When do you put the water/nutrients in the bottom cup? How high do you fill it?

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I usually start watering when the seedling is about 1.5 to 2-inches high. I put about 3/4 to an inch in the bottom and slowly lower the planting cup into it. BTW, I will be making a new video on growing tomatoes using the double-cup method. I've changed the procedure a bit that produces a larger root system.

[@bhancock1980]

My View From The Woods thanks for the update! Have you already made the new video for the double cup method? I am excited to try this and was hoping for more instruction on watering schedules.

[@generalawareness101]

My first time trying the double cup and the only thing that grew so far was white mold.

[@MyViewFromTheWoods]

I’ve never had mold? I don’t add water to the cup until the seedling is really tall. If you have having mold as you seed the soil I’d check your soil to see if that is the problem.

[@generalawareness101]

@@MyViewFromTheWoods Well, I tried it all over again and I have a bunch of stuff growing. I have too many things growing per cup with a couple of cups just showing their first fine hair root peeking out. What do I do next? I have seen the videos with a HUGE root mess at the bottom of the cup but I am unsure how I would get the plants out like that. I am also still trying to figure out why we even do the double cup method as well?

[@allandownton]

Use the same size but square bottom cups for the bottom cup and you don’t have to worry about rocks or marbles as the top cup will automatically stay up 1 inch for spacing.🍅🥒🌶️🫑🥬🥕
