How's your harvesting going? 🌶🌶🌶️ Edit: apologies for the focus issues in the video. Unfortunately didn't have time to re-record before this needed to go out...so had to either put it out as-is, or scrap the video.

[@old-fashionedcoughypot]

Too cool here in Sik-E-Dakh BC. l have 4 potted *Capezzoli Di Scimmia* C. Chinense in the greenhoose that have many green pods that l shall put into a 150 X 150 X 200 grow tent under a 1000 w metal halide to ripen up and perchance overwinter once l clean it out. They are a little bigger than a Aji Charapita, but really hit the hot spot for me. This is my 2nd year growing this strain l bought off eBay a couple of years ago along with *Cumari Do Para* which are hotter lMO, didn't grow any this Cumari year though, 😞great results in the greenhouse earth last year. Also growing *Blue Christmas* chilis and hot and sweet banana peppers and some capsicums and one *Fatalii* in the greenhoose that also will not ripen. l may dig that up as well and pot it up & tent it.

[@kybbe112]

Scorching hot spring stunted my chillies for about a month, kinda ruined the outdoor season for me. Poor yield coming if the season is not a month longer than usual.

[@FerdinandFake]

Chili's are going crazy this year, I wanted to do mainly tomatoes but they all shriveled up in the intense heat. Meanwhile I have more jolokias than I know what to do with, I just hope the drying goes well. Next year the tomatoes go into the shade again

[@kitoken368]

Hello! I'm new to planting peppers just wanted to know the size of the pots you're using?

[@HaZe_Da_PiTBuLL]

I was gifted some Yellow Fever seeds and I I planted one and it’s growing Mustard pods idk weather to call them Mustard Fever or Mustard King Naga or King Naga Mustard what’s your thoughts and do you want seeds?

[@pmbnet]

I am not a pet person, but got 6 layers for eggs. A year later and I have fallen in love with these cute feathered animals. Each one has their own character. With an incubator, I am now hatching chicks and loving this new hobby. They eat all my kitchen scraps, lettuce, cabbage and spinach. They also get plenty of KZN sunshine. The eggs are amazing. I can't buy store-bought eggs anymore. The retired battery hens you rescued had never seen a ray of sunshine, smelt fresh air or eaten leafy greens. They have retired in luxury at your home. In a cage, they don't even get to flap their wings or jump up on things. Food enters from one side of the cage, poop exits down below and poor eggs roll out the other side (of the cage). I use my chicken litter for my garden. Chickens turn over scrap food faster than a compost heap. We have a little ecosystem going on here.

[@johnn1474]

We have rehomed about 40 chickens now from BHWT, it’s so fulfilling watching them get their feathers back and enjoy being outside doing things that they should do naturally.

[@ChilliChump]

Absolutely. Such a rewarding experience. I have had chickens in the past. But these have been the best.

[@PacificGardening]

What I would give for those greenhouses. Appreciate the update video to kick off the weekend!

[@reniermoolman2882]

You have a south african accent why its quite cool to me because i am from south africa and you inspire me to keep on going

[@ChiliPepperMadness]

What a great looking garden!

[@ChilliChump]

Thanks mate

[@ataribowlingcgc4465]

Aji Charapita is my favorite variety to grow. It is one of the only peppers I have grown successfully inside. I winter over my plants every year using the cut back method and basically dry the peppers and make chili powder out of them. Those tiny peppers pack a nice heat punch and are very flavorful.

[@1Selous]

We have 15 Ex Battry, had them for years had 1 or 2 go off there feet separated them and gave extra vitamins and minerals, after about a week back on 2 legs and back in with the others. Our elder battery was 12 a isla Red when she passed away, so had at least 12 and half years of life. We have a older hen in the conservatory at moment she's limping chked for bumble can't see owt.

[@simplifygardening]

Some great looking chillies there mate. love the sugar stripey and I love my autopot system. link it to an ibc instead

[@Craxin01]

Here in Oklahoma, we're getting near the end of the season, and just the other day, I picked a couple of kilos (had to look up conversion as us Yanks are still using imperial) of red ripe jalapenos. Looking forward to smoking a bunch for chipotle hot sauce!

[@margaretalice6343]

We rescued 6 chickens that would have been culled pretty much bald but they soon grew back their feathers. They were laying machines. Even through the winter. Proper characters

[@michaelmccormick8013]

CC. Your plants are beautiful. My plants did not do very well this year, Too much rain in Quebec, CA. No worries though, I have pickled and harvested a lot of nice peppers.

[@ChilliChump]

Thank you! As long as you managed to get a harvest, and had fun doing it...that's all that matters mate

[@dartthewarrior]

Your golden nugget looks like it is twisted with a Fresno as well!

[@Thedudel-k2r]

Absolute amazing plants. I just started up again and your channel has helped me a lot. You have so many plants and so much information. Would love to talk one day if possible. Thanks for the video, have a good one!!

[@andyhawkes3335]

As others have said in the last two weeks my plants have gone mad late summer may have saved my season.After a very slow start things are looking good thanks for the quality seeds will order again for certain 😊

[@MsFresh619]

Sorry for the loss of your chicken. My plants are loving this late summer may the beautiful weather continue

[@CaerEsthar]

Sorry about your chicken, man

[@danvanmuizenberg6650]

A solar oscillating fan and a cal-mag boost should help with the bendy ones, similar problems with another recreational annual are common

[@PastyOReily]

My plants are loving this late summer , my scotchies are starting to ripen which is a relief , got plenty of fruit off my others already 👍 great video and happy harvesting mate 🌶️

[@daveaway]

Its been about 6 months since I visited your channel. Your place, green houses and property have really come along. Good job! Man those peppers look so healthy.

[@ChilliChump]

Thank you! It's been a lot of work...but it's worth every second

[@AstonTheVillaFan]

I love a chillichump release day 😉

[@social3ngin33rin]

Greenhouse with a lot of scary chilies lol

[@CSaville]

Slightly off topic but before watching your video I just finished making your Piri Piri hot sauce using Moz Piri Piri's that I grew from seed you provided, a couple of Holy Peak for a bit of bulk and a very small Dorset Naga both varieties also grown this year. The sauce is absolutely awesome! Really looking forward to deciding what to make with the Sugar Rush Stripeys, also grown from seed youprovided. I have a lot about to finish ripening. Already looking forward to your next video!

[@ChilliChump]

Fantastic, I'm glad you enjoyed it and that it worked out well for you! ❤️

[@bustysaintclair]

chickens are cool

[@nickallman5000]

[@ChilliChump]

Thank you Craig ❤️

[@iwanttobelieve5970]

I'm finally getting my first ghost pepper today. It's been struggling all season and today was the first reddish orange pod. I'm hoping the rest will be ripe soon. I am not sure if we have an organization for chickens that rescues chickens or not. I just sold four of my chickens I raised from the moment I got them because I was overwhelmed with eggs. I had four dozen in the fridge. So now I have four hens and I feel relieved that I can keep up with the eggs. It's just me. And my daughter gets eggs from me ever so often. But that's a great program. They are characters.

[@thor9517]

I got 3 chickens a few months back and they are such funny little creatures, each of them have their own characters, its absolutely amazing to watch them. Unfortunately one of them got eaten by a marten. Its unfortunate, but thats nature. Will have to secure them better and will get another batch of them. Great video, the amount of pods on your plants is astounding.

[@OldAbio]

I have the same this season with one of my Carolina Reaper plants. Some peppers looks like orange habanero's others like a (red) reaper should look like with a nice tail... Never had this before.

[@DonPandemoniac]

Genetics and crossing are such interesting topics. The amount of variants and even unique plant cultivars that have been created is amazing. I'm very happy to see you succeeding in creating your own chili varieties, I'll keep an eye on the store. Sucks that you had to put down one of the chickens, but yes it had a great retirement home where it was allowed to be itself again. Thank you.

[@old-fashionedcoughypot]

ln our village's community garden/farm in BC we have egg layers, we saved 10 of our *Gris Mistral* 'meat' chickens we got this spring & added them to our egg flock of 2 dozen or so. 1 black rooster on purpose & 1 that looks like the hens by accident, l didn't want to put him back with the others that had a couple of days to live so we kept him too. They are SO cool! l quite enjoy tending to them and always smile when they come running to me like little dinosaurs. l hope to hatch some eggs next spring in an incubator of the meat/egg X to see what shows up.

[@wranther]

Despite you challenges this growing season Shaun, you jave yourself many fine looking plants and numerous pods still to ripen! Your dual pod plant will be an interesting story to follow, if not a follow along video after the grown season has ended. Having also grown Aji Charapita in the past, I could see why there is a price as such for the small size of nice pods. Unfortunate to hear of the loss of one of your chickens, for they have all brought many good hours of enjoyable entertainment to you. Was that Barney being Barney is a quick couple of frames also? Here I will be going after a first heavy harvest beginning in the morning. Mid-September without frost or snow is not always common here. While the next week is looking nice for growing, I am looking forward to a more leisurely harvest cycle, other than when stepping out to grab a few at a time. There are hints of a change in the weather late next week, but other than that, Stay Spicy! -Bob...

[@nicholasroos3627]

I would look into hydroponic products that have Si. Helps with shoot development/strength and roots.

[@dougjones9750]

Thank you for the seeds Shawn. I can’t wait to get them started early next year! Sorry to hear about your chicken mate. 😢 it looks like you have a lot off picking to do. Cheers Doug from the US Arizona. Keep it spicy.

[@murdog04]

So sorry to hear about one of your chickens. It totally stinks losing an animal. On a bright note, your garden is looking amazing. I absolutely would love to take a tour in person one day. Your home is just awesome. Thanks so much for sharing. Stay Spicy! V/R Shane

[@davidarundel6187]

Have fun with the rescue chickens - they will have to learn how to be chickens , give them a 'hand' and teach them . Have had to do that for rescue chockens & they learn quick . 👍 Great crop of fruit on your varieties - i didnt know there were so many of them . Whats the oldest chillie plant ou have , still produceing fruit ? - i ask out of curiosity , as theres one jalapeneo plant in the neighbourhood which is coming up to 40 years - looks vey woody , but its growers , like it a lot ( guess they didnt expect to still be getting fruit from it ) .

[@nervousisotope5480]

Maybe adding silicone to nutrients would help with the branch breakage?

[@PepperGuru]

16:08 Definitely not. That isn’t how genetics work. It’s two separate plants. Pepper Cocktail trees via grafting is quite fun however. Once you uproot them, you’ll see. One plant is Golden Nugget and one is anyone’s guess(possibly unintentional F1)

[@johnnytheblacksmith6932]

Mate we got ourselves a couple of ex farm hens , awesome layers we've had 10 eggs a week for the last 10 months Highley recomend them to anyone looking to get Into keeping chickens

[@alexbernatzky5646]

Love the aji charapita. The flavour really is something else. mine came through red this year though compared to the orange fruit from last year (same plant overwintered) which I find very odd

[@fishingsammystyle8682]

My last batch of half a dozen ex battery hens I waded through waist high flood water to rescue. They're great company. My peppers are ripening steadily but are these superhots really edible? This will be my first year successfully growing superhots and is eating a Carolina Reaper an enjoyable thing? Like poking yourself in the eye? What's the point?

[@linaso9739]

You've got nice harvest coming - plants are covered with pods. You will need a lot of help picking everything up.

[@PreatorRaszagal]

Nice looking Aji Charapita! I grew some in a beer can this year for fun. Sadly it didn't put out any pods, but it was a lovely looking plant, so I will grow a single one in a 1 or 2 liter pot next year as well and hopefully get some pods! Those AutoPot plants look really nice too. I might have some AutoPot related questions since I'm considering getting some. 😮Those tails! Will be interesting to hear more about that cross! Also, can't wait for the naga sauce 🥵

[@alexbernatzky5646]

I recommend overwintering the pant if you can. I grew charapita from seed last year and got very few chillies but this year it exploded with fruit

[@chrispyg5879]

Just harvested my first suger rush stripey. Put it on homemade pizza. Delicious!

[@ChilliChump]

they are pretty tasty! I reckon pickled, they would be decent too

[@ryansauder7701]

While it might not be worthwhile since chilis go from seed to fruit in a season, but would it be possible to graft different varieties together? Your two variety plant made me wonder if you could graft a habanero and a scotch bonnet or something of the likes?

[@nicflanagan6662]

The chickens (Lohmans etc) are bread to, basically never go broody, lay continually, and be very passive. I bought 100, Farm gate sales. People were just stealing eggs & money. Bit disappointing. Chillies not done brilliantly in Dorset, still lot of green fruit 🤔. Memsahib bought a biltong dehydrator for my birthday 😋

[@dontswitchoff607]

Hey Mr chump, loving the content. One bit of unsolicited feedback though: when you give us a close up of your bounty your camera isnt focusing... so its quite blurty and not so nice to watch. We want to see crisp details :P

[@ChilliChump]

Thank you, glad you are enjoying it! Unfortunately I had an issue with my lens. By the time I was editing this, and saw the issue, it was too late to refilm. So had to make a choice of scrapping the video, and not releasing anything last week, or go ahead with this one.

[@BigTree412]

I love the videos 😊I wish you did the fahrenheit and pound equivalents when you say stuff I be so lost

[@ChilliChump]

Normally I try to include the farenheit and pound measurements etc. Just didn't have time with this video unfortunately!

[@CppObjectOrientedProgrammer]

Why do you have the mesh bag on about 1 per plant? Is it related to selling seeds, like wanting a set of true-to-type / self-pollinated seeds or something? What benefits are there to that? I see many seed sellers on etsy saying open-pollinated, results may vary - so I imagine that ties into whatever you're doing there. Are you selling the ones in mesh bags or doing something with them? How do you decided when to mesh bag?

[@user-re8rl5mg7c]

It is for manual cross pollination. To prevent other flower to pollinate it. If manual cross pollination is successful you'l get new pepper species and it is F1.

[@boneysworld]

Got my seeds delivered today thanks ✌️

[@mackshanebudd648]

I'm new to growing chilli peppers. Brought in Hungarian banana pepper and habanero that I was growing outside in 5 gallon pots. Put them under my mars hydro light. They just keep flowering and producing peppers. What should I expect from these moving forward. Perrennials mean it'll grow back each yr right? But being inside does the top not need to die off. Will it continue to produce constantly for yrs?

[@keithatkinson7649]

I'm having a late spurt of pods on my Poblanos.. There are about 24 developing pods on 2 plants.... Let's see if they bulk out in the last 2-3 weeks

[@keithatkinson7649]

@@ChilliChump it's certainly been a reasonably successful 2nd year. 1st year growing from seed and also first year growing in clay pebbles with a drip feed system. Had some probs with aphids which were difficult to shift due to growing in conservatory not greenhouse. May have overfed. But I give year 2 a 6 or 7 out of 10. I still ended up with 6ft tall Poblanos, so quite happy ☺️

Hi there what do you use in your auto pot tank along with your water thanks

I use the fertiliser I make, which I use in my main system. But you can use some tomato fertiliser, that will do the job too. I would recommend using it at half strength.

[@enigma591]

I had a three-year-old fatalii that produced no fruit this year. (I overwinter some plants.) Is this due to age, nutrients, something else?

[@lonewolfshepherd2348]

Hi Sean At our allotment site we have several now very happy chucks. Like yours "retired" battery hens all laying like crazy and seemingly very happy! Now a quick question I have an overwintered scotch bonnet. Doing on first glance really well , large plant, shed loads of fruits now of a good size. It is right beside an orange habanero both watered and fed exactly the same. I have tasted both and sadly I have tasted hotter sweet peppers than my scotch bonnets! The habanero on the other hand to me is a really hot pepper. Any suggestions ideas or best guess where I went wrong with the scotch bonnet??

[@ChilliChump]

Hello mate. You say the SB is overwintered...was there more heat to the pods last year?

[@lonewolfshepherd2348]

[@dwaynelejeune3508]

Oh and also noticed you have all your plants in pots, and a green house. I plant in ground and NO green house!

[@ChilliChump]

Hi there and welcome! The easier chillies to grow would be from the frutescens and annuum species. chillichumpseeds.com/species/capsicum-frutescens/ chillichumpseeds.com/species/capsicum-annuum/ These will also be milder in heat than chillies from the capsicum Chinense species. The frutescens and annuum species of chillies typically have a shorter growing season, so should be easier for you to get a decent harvest.
