My Pepper Garden 2009 - Video 1

For the first time I traded for super-hot seeds and germinated them to raise for my garden. It's been three months and I thought I'd document the stage.

After all is said and done I will have 5 Bhut Jolokias, 3 Fatalliis, 4 Trinidad Scorpions, 3 Red Scotch Bonnets, 3 Naga Morrich, 2 Mustard Habaneros, 2 Cveta Hots, 2 Jalapeno/Habanero Cross, 4 Seven Pods & 3 Red Savina Habaneros. If I have room in the garden I will buy a hot paper lantern or two from our neighborhood garden centre.

Should be a good year.

what fertiliser did you use on ghost peppers when you first fed them?

[SAK59]

@daikaiju20 I go for high nitogen spikes when the plants are very small. They are convenient and seem to work great. Of course, I start with soil that has fertilizer and compost in it to begin with. Thank you for watching my video and taking the trouble to post a comment. I really appreciate it.

Thanks for sharing your video with us. I bought the same exact greenhouse as you and have been driving myself crazy with wondering if I could use it for peppers, because I read somewhere online that said to never use peat pellets to attempt to germinate pepper seeds. Obviously it works and your peppers look great!

@budgiebirdy I saw the same thing but decided to take a chance and this is my 3rd season using it. As long as no one tells the pepper seeds I guess all is well. Thanks very much for the compliment. And thank you for watching my video. Your comments are really appreciated.

I find jiffy peat pellet to be unecessary however they do work if you do it right. I stick to jiffy peat pots and seedling mixes. :)

@NikkiDeBoerFan I am sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I have to ask this, though. How would you use a seedling mix in a Jiffy germination tray? I use the Peat Pellets for the convenience. They seem to work fine...they have for me, anyway. And they fit in the indentations in the tray and stay together well. It isn't warm enough in my basement to germinate without the dome. Thank you for watching my video and taking the trouble to post your comment. It is really appreciated.

@ArizonaAdventures So sorry for the lateness of this reply. The CFL bulbs work great. The only problem with them is that they interfere with our wireless network. Last year I got a bunch of High Output F5 flourescent bulbs. They worked pretty well without the interference. I'll use them again in the upcoming year. Thank you for watching my video and taking the time to post a comment.

how do you like those CFL bulbs say comapred to some old florescent shop type lights?
