Grow GIANT Pepper Plants for Huge Harvests! 

Check out my plants for really ji-normous peppers.

the more you know the better you grow

you definetly should invest in a led

I have LED lights for when they’re small, but right now most of them are 30-40cm tall. Have too many, couldnt bother with buy one for all of them. I have them in a South-east facing window. Its slower, but it works

@@emiliachan that's nmot enough lol it's the heat that is the problem

All hail the magic bucket! 🙌🏼 video of the 200 pepper plant from last year is on my page too. I got 4 more buckets for growing even more giant plant this year too, so stay tuned.

It’s a huge bucket. If he put it in a one gallon it won’t grow big. I want to see a 50 gallon plant

Does this bucket have drainage holes? I want to start one for my porch.

Thats what i wanna know​@@555Revelation

😂😂😂

There will always be something to nit pick about! I’m a big fan of keeping it simple though. I appreciate you honoring the results!

You do realize the nutrients from the compost on top washes down with each watering 🤡

Me too.

Yeah that’s right. Keep it too yourself! 😊

Knit picks anyways as he says never mind I'm not going to knit pick 🙄

It simply identifies as a hot pepper 😂

hey dude, my first year growing peppers. I am two months late for starting from seed. I did my research. Do you think it will have drastic consequences?

​@@MrYarabandidepends on what zone you're in and how long your growing season is. If you live in a warmer climate you may be ok. Happy gardening 😊

​@@MrYarabandi Go ahead you will get most production later near fall its ok tho bro you can cut it back down a bit bring it inside all winter itll come back again next warm season

Sounds delicious!!

How many days it took to germinate your habanero pepper seeds? Its been more then 2 weeks since i sowed their seeds with suitable environment and still no signs of germination. My seeds are fresh Franchi Italian seeds

@@gandharaorganicfoods What temperature, day and night? Is the soil cooling from evaporation in a drafty location?

@@TheDuckofDoom. its been a month now since I sowed the seeds and the pots are placed in a direct sunlight but soil is mostly wet. Temperature is 20 to 32 average now adays. Should i place the pots in a shade or what is the solution.? I assume seeds might be dead by now or what you suggest? Please Help

@@gandharaorganicfoods Yeah they should have sprouted by now in that temperature range. It is hard to say why over the internet because of the many details; could be bad seed, rot, wrong moisture, maybe got too hot in the sun(common if using the clear plastic covers) or too cold at night. Next attempt, If you have a place that is the same temperature range but not in direct sun use that, then move to sun when you see the first sprout pushing up. Don't use fertilizer before the seeds sprout. Be sure the mix or soil is porous so the seeds can get some oxygen. Be sure to use fresh potting mix so it doesn't carry diseases that rot the seeds, You can pasturize potting mix(fresh or used), I do this for rare and difficult seeds that need the very best chance. Wet the mix well and put in an old baking tin, cover with a lid or foil and place in an oven at 130-150c for a few hours until the center is 95-100c, allow to cool then add more clean drinking water if it has dried out too much, then plant the seeds.

No problem thank you for watching! Growing a lot more big plants this year, so stay tuned

Sounds like an interesting experiment! I really think that the Mycorrhizae improve growth and flowering just from my observations on when I use vs don’t use it. I have actually just partnered with dynomyco to run a more controlled experiment with it and I’ll be making a video on those results later this summer! Then we will know for sure. Jealous of your long growing season and happy that I could provide some inspiration!

⁠I’ll keep you posted brother on my end of the world here in AZ , looking forward to your videos and seeing the results. I’ll be sure to fallow your tips and advice and looking forward to getting some of your Hot sauce and swag. The company Logo is amazing FYI. Happy growing bro !

Thank you! More to come 😄

Me neither! Are you growing anything that you're excited about? I've got big plans! This year I'm going to try to do more large plants like this one, instead of many smaller plants in small containers.

​I received my allotment end of last summer, so have been patiently waiting to start up my own chilli sauce company. I'm going to buy 150x IKEA bags for growing in as they are huge, get some chickens and a bee hive ✌️ ​@@jackspepperpatch

@@jackspepperpatch not to hijack but my scotch bonnet seeds are on the way.

If you haven't studied you be over doing it.. just winging it will work for first couple of yrs...but things like nutrition defiencency in soil is real amendments to soil is real so it always help to study to get better

Thank you!

This video doesn’t show the years of practice, hundreds of failures, and hours of research. Just keep at it! You’ll be growing monsters in no time

If you haven't yet check into the cloth pots they're much cheaper and vastly Superior

Thanks, and same to you!

@@jackspepperpatch you're welcome

My favorite pepper!

Trying to do it again this year, stay tuned!

That’s the plan! Appreciate it

Awesome! What zone are you in and what do you plan to do with all of those? That’s a lot of heat!

Try growing Shishito peppers, the easiest, very prolific sweet pepper. Grows to 1.5ft to 3ft tall You can put 2 plants in a 5 gallon grow bag & 3 in a 7 gallon Good Luck !

Peppers love grow bags, you should do well! Most of my other plants are in bags. Best of luck this year!

Appreciate it!

Bro what? LOL

Look like Trinidad Scorpions

My first ever super thanks!! I really appreciate it

Happy new year! Your climate sounds really nice, how hot does it get? Sometimes excessive heat causes blossom drop too. If that’s it could could always try a shade cloth over the plants. Other than that watering on a very regular schedule can help with calcium uptake!

add calcium boron fertilizer.

That’s what she said!

Great idea! Plus very economical. This year I’m growing 6 of these large plants, and I’m going to use ollas to water them. So I will definitely need to mulch with something.

@@jackspepperpatch I have a couple pine trees that I use to rake up the needles and use this for mulch, a lot cheaper than buying it.

I will post a final update in the comments here! Up to 149 at the moment - I've picked it one more time since the video went up.

Awesome 🎉

Nice! I’m sure you’ll get a bumper crop this season since you’ve got such a good head start. What do you put in your chili sauce?

Appreciate it! Yeah I’m definitely thinking some kind of red hab after trying them. Tasty and spicy whatever they are though!

Yeah, these funky ones can be unstable for a few generations I think!

Thank you! No, I didn’t prune this plant and I don’t prune most of my peppers. I’ll occasionally top one if I have a seedling that’s getting too tall and skinny but it’s not a standard practice for me.

@@jackspepperpatch thank you

I use a lot of 5 gallon fabric bags and they work well, I bet your plants loved the 10 gallon ones! I’ve never had as much luck with bell peppers. I can never get them quite as big as ones from the store are.

@@jackspepperpatch I put two plants in each bag so we have the same volume per plant. I've got some 20 gallon bags, I might do three per bag. I'm in zone 4b maybe 5a, it's just too short a season for bell peppers. I'll try mini bell peppers this year maybe.

Impressive!!

Es facil cuando le agrego solo fertilizantes de quimico no es nada orgánico

I’m sure they’ll still do great! What kinds did you plant?

The best compost is homemade stuff! For soil I buy from a local nursery. Their soil is a mix of topsoil, compost, manure, worm casings, and sand.

Yes! I drilled a bunch of 3/8” holes in the bottom of this pot. You can see that process in last year’s video of growing a big Fatalii plant in this pot.
