HOT Tips for Growing Chili Peppers at Home

Did you do a taste test video?

Do you know if ts best to bring chillis inside house on these cold days (for ripening?) Or does that just sacrifice the fact there is not as much light indoors. I wonder if the 8c evenings here are stopping them ripening.😊

hi a growing a few different types of chill's my purple jalapeno has just started to form its first chilli one thing i done and is seams to have worked i pollinated all my flowers with a small paint brush because there is very little wind in the greenhouse

where did you get your plugs from?

How much vermiculite exactly please?

I grow my chili's hydroponically. They are not over watered. How is overwatering even a real thing when mine suspend in water their entire lives. Also it does not make them less spicy

Any advice for growing in an apartment when you only have a grow light? I keep my house at about 74°

Not Caroliiina Reaper 😂 Carolina..As in the Woman's name 'Caroline', or the place 'North Carolina'..😊

Hello, my fellow chili-head! When growing chiles, the hotter the temperature the hotter the pepper. If you have a cool growing season, the peppers won't be as hot. Also, peppers cross-pollinate easily, which can dilute out a lot of the heat. One year, I had milder peppers next to my jalapenos and there was no heat whatever in the jalapenos! You could eat them like a green pepper. Grrr! It's best to plant a row of peppers, then say, a row of tomatoes, then you can plant another kind of pepper. Just make sure they're separated by some other plant that will keep them from crossing. As for putting up your harvest, peppers pickle beautifully. So, if you have a peck of pickled peppers, you'll be able to enjoy them all winter. This year, I'm growing Carolina Reapers for the first time. So excited.

I have grown finger chillies and English ones in my living room window before and worked out well but great video

Ive just sown some seeds (about 3 weeks ago) but ive not got any signs of life yet. I know they wont fruit this year but does this mean they are not going to germinate?

I've got the exact same chili plugs as you to try for my first attempt at growing them. I fell at the first hurdle by putting them in the conservatory (with windows on a crack) because I came home from work one day to half of them having been burnt - which I never would imagine here in the UK.
the other half seem to be doing well and the ones I thought I'd killed are coming back slowly. However now I'm stuck with where to keep them. I thought the conservatory would be ideal, but perhaps South facing is too much direct sun.
I moved them to the kitchen window sill which is also South facing but they will get too big to stay there. Will they be ok going back in the conservatory once they are bigger? Was my mistake putting them in the sun too early? I've heard of the term "hardening them" but have no idea what that is? 🤣

I'm growing my first chillies this summer, didn't buy the seeds, bought chillies for Chilli Con Carne and harvested the seeds from one fruit, only sowed one seed and now it's around 4 Inches tall.

Where do you buy your plants online?

surprisingly this nutty geeky and amusingly funny guy actually knows a lot more than all those idiots with so many subscribers

Thanks for the tips! We wanna grow poblano, jalapeños, Thai chili and habaneros ourselves. Also the chili peppers joke was 💯

This is a GREAT video! Thank you!

Where did you buy them from?
