Unless you plan on saving the seeds from plant you don’t have to worry about cross pollination and also is usually takes more than 1 year to get results from cross pollination.

OH! on the bug problem of Beetles and such let me tell you what has helped me in the last 3 years I have 4 big bug zappers and I sit them on the ground on corners of garden. I also cut the plastic guards open for bigger bugs/moths to get in. works great! moths get zapped before laying eggs has ended my tomato worms and corn worms totally. beetles go in too somewhat at night if sit on ground. Now the cheep 20.00 ones do nothing though

And the soap and the peppermint oil and the neem oil. everyone on youtube just repeats stuff they have seen on videos. I have tried all that stuff with very little good. Heck and the videos of people saying spray them off with water. common sense tells me that is not going to work! How did they get on the plant in the first place? by uber! dont think they just going to climb right back up????? Heck I cant even keep them off with poison 7 liquid and such. No I am not a big organic guy.

@PepperGeek

We do not do anything for cross pollination. The pests usually take care of themselves since we have a good variety of plants around our peppers, and for fungus/disease, just best practices like bottom pruning, mulching and proper plant spacing. Disease is best avoided by planting varieties that are naturally resistant

@@PepperGeek I was always a green bell and jalapeno planter. I started watching you last winter and you got me so pumped to grow more varieties. I have 7 different varieties growing and have made a list of all I am going to plant next season. You have turned me into a pepper geek and I am loving it. Thank you for the encouragement.

So when should the plants begin producing peppers? I have 7 different kinds and the only ones I have harvested is the banana peppers. I am starting to get worried, I planted on May 15th and am in Indiana.

Hm, planted seeds May 15? That is on the late side for your zone, but you may still get harvests. We usually have our biggest harvest days in the late summer (Sept.)

@@PepperGeek Thank you. Our last "frost date" is May 15th, so we try to plant around that time. But, hey, we are probably not doing it correctly. hahaha

Congratulations on your new home and garden! Hope it is as rewarding for you was it has been for me. A TomatoGeek channel would be very valuable if created by someone with your level of excellence... You're giving me a run for the money with how many cultivars you are doing each year. I tend more toward the middle of the Scoville scale, not seeing the point of anything hotter than a Ghost at present, and am more outdoor-oriented, but now that you have your own yard that may converge. There are a lot of very promising Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cultivars I'm trying out at present. I got into C. Baccatum last year but you've overtaken me on that front. A research question: in my experience, if a pepper you grew from a purchased seen turns out different from its packet-mates, it is because a variant seed got mixed in by accident, rather than due to cross-pollination in my own garden. As far as I know it is biologically unlikely for cross-pollination to cause same-season variance though quite a few people talk about it. In one case a Ghost pepper seed I grew turned out to be a Tomato! (and a pretty good one). Quite a different story when you're saving seeds, I've seen two (rather nice) hybrids form that way so far.

Love all your informative vids! In your fertilizer for peppers vid 3 months ago and in the description you mention a 2-3-1 fertilizer for bloom/fruiting. I'm curious why the nitrogen % is higher than the potassium % and also can any of the 3 numbers be a higher percentage, for example 8-16-16? My Reapers, ghost etc are in 3 gallon pots and started flowering about 10 days ago and don't wanna give them something too strong!?! Lol Thank you and Cheers from Canada!😁🌶

I've got myself a respectable garden as well. Peppers are great. I have a question for ya, why would leaves on my bell peppers be deformed and some of them upside down?
@PepperGeek
@PepperGeek 3 жыл бұрын
Upside down leaves is usually just from wind blowing the plants around. Deformed leaves may be something else, like a nutrient issue or overwatering

Only for saving seeds, and even then a cross pollination is fairly uncommon. Bell peppers near jalapenos will not lead to a spicy bell/mild jalapeno

beautiful garden/peppers !!😍 I have 1 question that I can't seem to find in your videos. why are my bell peppers (purple beauty, orange) so short and leafy? the trunks are thick, and are over flowing with vegetation... but they don't seem to be getting any taller. they are in large pots pit doors , full sun.
