I'm sure his way is the best but I just throw mine in the wet cold dirt and they shoot up.

Another tip that I personally use is to warm the water prior to watering, so as not to shock the seedlings with cold water.

i literally threw 4 red pepper seeds in a terracotta pot with potting soil on an after thought after making an omelette and thought "what the hell" They are cranking and ready to produce. I also live in nyc. so its not this complicated and grow your own.

I’m fortunate to have old school cast iron radiators in my house by the window sills. I put a piece of marble on top so it doesn’t get too hot and Also makes a flat surface for the seed trays. If you have these types of radiators and a window that gets a lot of sun take advantage!

Greetings from the South of Russia. I mix the soil mixture from the store and the one I take after the horses, and put it in a large container on the gas stove over low heat. I stir when the moisture begins to evaporate. I keep it under the lid

This is something I've never tried until this year. I was at Walmart buying Bell Pepper seeds ($1.90 for 30 seeds). I need a Bell Pepper from produce (.74 cents for 80+ seeds and we ate the pepper) I planted the packaged seeds and the produce seeds to see if they would germinate, they did! They germinated at the same rate and in the same starter tray using potting soil without a heat mat. We've also germinated 24 Cherokee Purple Tomato plants from a produce tomato. They are usually $3.50 each if you buy the plant. I understand hybrid seeds may not germinate but I haven't run into that scenario yet. Hope this helps someone.

Wow, good stuff! Just revisiting this info, as I am about to plant my seeds in OCTOBER!!! Still starting the tomato seeds at Christmas, but this year, I am doing 'mater cuttings only - you guessed it - now. I use my water heater closet as the germination space, as it keeps everything close to 90F and DRY. Once they germinate, I'll turn the lights on. I know this sounds extreme, but here in Charlotte, this works perfectly for me. Thanks again, for all of your great info.

I discovered your channel today. A dedicated channel to peppers! Respect!

Thanks. Great info. Just ordered my heat mat while watching this video.

Ok this video answers a bunch of my questions and addresses many of my issues in having with my seedlings. Thank you so much.

I’ve followed your germination tips and have had some good success. My habbys have sprouted and one even sprouted with three leaves at the very start, which kind of surprised me.

Awesome information and very detailed. Thanks. I have 9 of 14 different pepper plants sprouted. But here in Mongolia its a challenge. Cold negative temperatures 🌡 and mostly all peppers must be grown indoors. Thanks for the information and help.

Great information. Went from zone 5b to 4a so want to make sure my peppers get a great start this year. Have never used a heating mat. Subscribed.

Thanks for sharing these tips... I love growing peppers & am pretty successful at growing what I grow out of pepper plants, but I think i would be more successful with your technique of placing them on a heat mat, so thanks for sharing😊😊
