So when your chili plant has flowers coming out and then they dry out. The chili should start growing correct? But what if instead the stem dries off then breaks off before a chili grows, what would cause that. Wrong weather conditions, or not enough nutrients, or is there male and female flowers. If so how do I tell the difference.
@@eolea19 no, the flowers are both male/female and normally they can pollinate themselves. Mostly it is enough a bit wind or shaking the plants (if there are no insect pollinators). But different varieties have different flower inside and some are easier some more difficult for self pollination. You can always try it manually with small brush (as I did in the closed photo box). Otherwise as you wrote, there are lot of condition possibilities, why it can happen - low or too much water, nutrients, light...
@@jayvienaelga6947 when it needs to be. Depends on size of the pot, temperature... Can be daily or once in few days. There is no universal answer to it
Hello! What camera did you use for the video? I'm falling in love with the plant world and love the time lapses. Nice job! Hope to see many time lapses more! Big up from Spain!
Beautiful! The only thing that's missing, that would have made this video perfect, is a timeline. Even just specifying week 1, week 2, etc., would have been enough. Fantastic work nonetheless, thank you for sharing!
This was gr8, my Masquerade Pepper plant's first flower started closing after I tried to pollenate it and I was worried that meant I screwed up but this plant did the same thing
You are welcome :-) But be carefull and don't take it as given. It can be different for diverse varieties and different conditions above all - this was in closed box under constant artificial lightning.
What a beauty! (both the plant and the video). I would've totally made the mistake of harvesting the pepper before it turns yellow... Keep them coming!
First video of yours I've watched ever. It is simply breathtaking. Well, remove simple. It is wow. Keep up the good work. I subbed just coz of the video.
Yes, sometimes the color doesn't want to come long time and then suddenly it change :) But every variety can be different and also on this video it can be a bit quicker because the plant got light 24/7
@@PetrGanaj I thought 24/7 light would be bad for the plant? The plant gets a bit of rest in the dark and I'm sure allot of plants change their growing patterns based on the time difference of day/night. Controlling how it uses its energy, putting energy into growth when the days are shorter and then to flowering and fruiting when the days are longer.
@@micheals1992 Sure normal light changing is of course better for the plant and I have done 24/7 only because of the photo shooting to have constant lightning for the time lapse. I wouldn't do it for growing purposes.
Idk why gardening isn’t taught to older grades I’m in high school and my absolute joy is gardening i don’t get why it’s not as simple and easy as people think we should be learning about the growth of the planet pruning, propagating, and more. It’s just awesome 😎 👏 👏
i have put the remains of a fruit in one of my flower pots and something happened! thanks for the upload. there is not all waste what people don't eat.
When the yellow color comes in.. Great work, it's so mesmerizing to look at. Growing my first chillis from seeds. I am about to move the 7 of them to a bigger pot and spread them further from each other.
I did it with small brush, but actually only for sure, because besides no insect, there was also no wind or shaking in the photo box, which would help too. Otherwise it is able to pollinate itself.
Thanks for watching and appreciation. Cannabis would be for sure very nice to watch, but I'm affraid too big for my current photo box. But who knows, maybe in the future I build bigger one ;)
I'm so impressed by this. I have done so much to maintain my plants and for you it seems effortless. No fancy grow lights, yet the plant grows beautifully. Do you use any feed? Congrats on such a successful plant and video! 😀
Thanks so much. Actually it was not the point to grow the plant indoor, I have put it in my photo box just for the first 3 months for the shooting, otherwise it lived then later free on day light on my balcony :) In my box I just have some common LED light which I don't know anymore was for this shooting, I changed it since then more times to avoid the flickering partly seen in the video. Otherwise it takes really not much effort to grow a plant. It just need light, water, soil and love ;-)
So many little bugs crawling about 😨 is that normal??? I planted some pepper sees in a cup full of soil but I'm keeping them indoors for now because it tends to get very windy outside and usually the critters wipe out all the little seedlings as they come up. But I definitely do NOT want bugs in the house either...
You can try sterilize the soil before planting (in oven for example), but the soil is just normal full of small living organisms. Some of them help the plant, some can damage it. It is life and nature...
Did you use a grow light or is this near a window? Iv been wanting to learn how to grow exclusively inside. What do you use if this is indoor. You did a great job thank you!!
Normally I grow on balcony on sunlight. This is indoor in closed photo box just for the photoshoot to have constant lightning. I used some generic LED light, don't remember anymore, which one.
Thanks for tip. But the goal of this was not to grow a pepper indoor but to shoot the time lapse, therefore I just wanted constant light. Otherwise i grow them on my balcony on daylight.
Hi. I didn't have some regular schedule, just once in few days when I remebered it :) I think week would be maximum or maybe almost too long, depending on size of the plant.
It is actually not a growing setup for me, but a photo-box. Otherwise I grow on daylight on balcony. I don't remember which light I used at the time, but it was probably some generic LED. The box is total about 50 cm high and the light is on the top, with something under the plant I think the light was around 30 cm distance to the plant direct (as it grew and filled the box then less of course)
Probably not pollinated. Depending on variety they are able self pollination, sometimes without external intervention, sometimes with. Do you have it indoors? If yes and there are no bees or other insect to pollinate it, mostly it is enough just shake the whole plant few times once a day to pollinate...
@@PetrGanaj The pot is kept outdoor beside the rose plant and yes, I do shake the plant 2-3 times a day. But nothing happened. Same thing happened with capsicum plant 😐
@@PoojaMehtaHimeshNagar well in that case hard to say. Too much water or too little? Too little light or too much? Low nutrients? Can be anything. Some varieties have unfortunate flower structure and the self pollination is harder then. But if you say it is outside, there should be insects to pollinate. You can try it manually with some small brush - just to test it if it helps. Otherwise I don't know anymore...
Great time lapse, thanks! I planted a few seeds and they sprouted, now they are 2 inches long with small leaves, should I repot them separately in bigger pots ? If I plant more than one in a pot, what distance should I keep between them?
The distance depends on variety (some plants are bigger some not so much). I try to keep a distance minimal about 30 cm, but mostly even more. If the pot is big (deep) enough and the plants have enough soil/nutrients, they can live near to each other - maybe 10-15 cm. But it is not optimal. You'll see, now (with 2 inches) it doesn't seem like that, but when they are fully grown, the crowns take pretty lot of space :)
