Dorset Naga Peppergeek Challenge - Final Harvest

[@ChilliChump]

This has been a lot of fun, and already can't wait to do it again next year! Thanks again to @Peppergeek ....fancy doing it again next year? 🤔😁 🌱🌶Interested in growing along next year? chillichumpseeds.com/product/dorset-naga/

[@PepperGuru]

Way to go Shaun! Very impressive mate! It's a bitter sweet time for many as the season winds down. One chapter ends and another begins. It's not over just yet for our Dorset Naga plant here in Georgia though! Something tells me our next harvest will be really nice 😎Thanks for the shout out and thanks so much for allowing me to grow along with you and Calvin. This has been really fun so far! Second harvest on our plant coming soon!

I LOVED the challenge between you and pepper geek! The 2 best english speaking Chili related yt channels out there.

[@PacificGardening]

Definitely interested in future videos & joining in. Was a lot of fun to keep up with both of you this year.

[@PhilC74]

Massive well done Shaun. Would love to know what change you did to the feeding through the season to achieve this result. 😊

[@rbid]

Yes, I would like to see a video on feedding changes..

[@janitokleynhans5574]

Good stuff. I am in the start of summer here in Argentina. Plants are doing well and the old (5 years) plants are starting to flower.

[@DickeyTT]

Wow, you are the champion, well done, would love to understand more about how you achieved this harvest. Well done Shaun.

[@gazellecarlson6543]

definitely greenhouse peppers grow better. could not have grown pepper so well without your knowledge. thx again

[@DonPandemoniac]

I really enjoyed watching the various approaches and experiments of both teams. Impressive yields all over & definitely worth a rematch.

[@linaso9739]

That's an impressing harvest!

[@ArtistisMe]

Mine are all in 60 Lt soil pots. My Dorset Armagedons have produced well, not so well on my Assam Bhut Jolokia, Butch T Scorpion & Carolina Reapers. However, there all still fruiting in my heated greenhouse, & all about 3 to 4 ft tall. Which, for my first attempt at growing superhots I'm well pleased with & already sorted my seeds for next year. I just wish I had a much larger greenhouse space.

[@Craxin01]

I planted my Jalapenos back in May. Here it is, almost Halloween, and it's still warm enough for the plants to grow. We're about to get a cold snap (here in Oklahoma), so I'm about to lose the plants. Going to save what I can, already have my fermentation going for what's going to be my largest batch yet.

[@trentfrancis4646]

You are rubbing it into the Geek now Boss

[@joeponder9668]

I would love to join in next year!!! I am in south Florida so you would have to pick an end date for my season as I can basically grow year round. Season reaches “end” around mid December for maybe 3 weeks at best then back in the mid 70’s in Freedom Units.

[@robertzehm]

Yes I would like to know all possible data on the growing of this plant. Very impressive grow.

[@MsFresh619]

Well done Shaun that's an impressive plant and harvest. I'll be up for joining next year

[@n9ne]

i had almost 4 harvests this year. decided to not trim any of my plants. interesting to say the least. planted my seeds in march. my 4th harvest grew 40% and weren't spicy. trimmed every other year maybe i am terrible at it i don't know but i had only 1 harvest other years. strangely enough my peppers didn't fully develope until mid august. my first harvest that is. i had about 10 plants and 5 kilo grams of peppers. late aug to sep i had 3 kilos.

[@ChilliChump]

That's the challenge when growing a monster plant in a season....getting lots of foliage is pretty easy, but getting the balance right to allow for a good harvest, thats the trick. Have a look at what I did last year, using a 160l pot....didn't produce as well as the 60l pot.

[@SouthernCaliforniaGardening]

stoked to have found ur channell. we’re chilie pepper lovers. having fun trying to cross a couple varieties i love😊

[@ChilliChump]

Welcome to my channel! I hope you enjoy some of my other content too! Talking of crossing, have you watched this video of mine yet? kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2mze4ellJp9hNU

[@SouthernCaliforniaGardening]

@@ChilliChump i will chk it out, thank u!

[@butzmn7190]

If you do a monster mash this year, you're gonna need a barrel. Very excited to see that!

[@BigBoss-dm5bn]

Great results mate. Do you know when will you add Sugar Rush seeds?

[@ChilliChump]

Works be this Sunday

[@BIGPROWLER]

would be cool to see the plant dragged outside in open space for scale perspective

[@thechef303]

spat my beer out laughing at the chickens🤣

[@ChilliChump]

They are funny little things 😂

[@Nitsuj238]

Would love to know what change you did!

[@silverbackpeppers]

Bro you are living the dream

[@brandongrundy2904]

I'm definitely interested in doing the competition next year! Also want to buy these seeds from you!

[@PreatorRaszagal]

You forgot to say "nice!" after you said "69"! 😄And lol @ the chickens hehe

[@ChiliGartenFreak]

i need to learn much much more! So do you think a hydroponik Plant can be bigger than a plant in dirt stuff?

[@ChilliChump]

That would depend on a lot of things....hydro can certainly make it grow quicker.

[@RobertSpangle]

I got some seeds coming! I am on my second order from Shawn and will order more. Can we pre-order your 2024 kit?

[@grolsch-nl]

I will definitely join you guys.

[@simonhughes9418]

Hey Shaun, out of interest what’s your total harvest in weight for this year? It’s your first proper year at the new place right (admittedly an odd season). I’m guessing you’ve weighed it all 😃

[@ChilliChump]

Hey Simon, we've been here for about 2 and half years now. So second full year. Total harvest weight, I'm not too sure right now. If you have a look at the sauce video I did with the last harvest, I gave the weights in that

[@cedarmyers6709]

I'm moving in to a new place next month with lots of room. I'd love to grow along with you guys next year! 🌶🌶 I would order seeds from you but I'm uncertain about getting them into the US.

[@ChilliChump]

Congrats on the new place! I have had minimal issues with shipping to the US. On the other hand, Australia has been a pain!

[@fishingsammystyle8682]

I'll grow along with you.

[@alfrancis8]

May i know why did you picked the Dorset naga? Is it known to grow large?

[@ChilliChump]

Because of a competition a few years ago where they grew a monster Dorset Naga plant named Nigel. I talk about it more in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4nSXn2XoM6mnNk

[@alfrancis8]

@@ChilliChump ok will watch. I just thought it was just a variety that grew larger than usual chinense. Do chinense grow larger than other? Im growing in containers so i may allocate only 1-2 super large pots to try to grow a monster and wonder which to choose.

[@LatinGhost916]

I wonder if their eggs would be hot if they ate the peppers

[@kayhancamurbuken6556]

Would love to see both of you grow outdoors next time. A little unfair in my opinion

[@ChilliChump]

In our climate, it wouldn't work. We discussed this when the challenge was set up. Have a look at the experiments I've done with outdoor growing in England. There is a reason I've invested in greenhouses and polytunnels for my business

[@tommollicola3740]

Awesome🌶️😎👏

[@JustOneAsbesto]

I don't trust those chickens. They're definitely looking for trouble.
