@growingyourgreens ~ Thanks, John! I hadn't even pondered the points your response to me shares! Instead, I've been pondering USED DIAPERS with MOISTURE RETENTION CRYSTALS soaked in baby's urine as planting hole additives! (Because of your latest JUICING in your garden kitchen video!) ~ Have you tried that, yet? (You mentioned an interest + adding urine to TREES) I've heard the urine-soaked diaper crystals are EXCELLENT for adding to tomatoe & other EDIBLE planting holes for dual benefits...

@haiweigh even if they cross pollinate it will have absolutly no effect on the peppers ,,, only if you keep the seeds, than next year you will have the effects of cross pollination.

@jwalk1014 He does! It's over by the house and in full-flower _right now_ ~ The "How to Use Your Bolting Veg Leaves" video, (Before this one), shows him harvesting the white flowers & juicing them :) At least that's how I remember it... "-) ~ Keep Growing Your Own NUTRITION! :-) Love Your Dedicated Efforts, John! ~ ENJOY: Sharing your videos & all the keystrokes they save me (in not having to TYPE explanations!) <3

Hey John., I don't mean to nitpick but feijoa is pronounced like "fay-joe-ah". This is a Brazilian name. BTW I love your channel!
John, What are your thoughts on including a couple of un-struck old-fashioned _matches_ into each PEPPER PLANT planting HOLE? This is how I was taught to do it for "cheap phosphorous, way back in the '70s... Thanks in advance! <3

If it works, go for it. I personally would prefer to add a more "natural" source of phosphate, if in fact, that is what I needed to add. My first choice, would be to add composted fruits (which have a high level of phosphate) after that I would use a rock phosphate.

Hi John, Love the video! Do you use anything special on the plants with after they are planted to prevent transplant shock?

In general, no. Things I do: 1. aclimate the plants. I move the plants from the greenhouse and set the plants out in the bed (or nearby) a few days before planting. 2. Water plants before transplanting and then after.
