Starting Pepper Seeds Indoors Part 2 of 3

Published 2020-03-19
Start Your Pepper Seeds Now To Get A Head Start On Spring! Part 2 of a 3 part video series! Peppers are one of the most popular garden crops of all time. They are easy to grow, transplant well, come in a zillion different varieties, and are delicious. Everyone loves growing Peppers!

If you live in the Northern Hemisphere however, your growing season is finite, and often too short to properly ripen Peppers that are directly seeded into the garden. Starter Pepper plants are expensive, so you need a plan! The plan is simple, start your own Pepper seeds indoors, now during the winter, to get a head start on spring planting!

In this video, Part 2 of the series, I show you from start to take those germinated seedlings and move them along to the next stage of growth, at scale, so that you can be ready for spring, and have as many Pepper starter plants as your garden can handle. The method works for any variety, and the strategies mentioned here are useful to beginners and veteran green thumbs alike!

    Just one look at the presenter's eyes, and I know, he is decent person. God bless you good firend. An excellent video is a welcome bonus
  • My peppers just sprouted last week. I transplant them up into those same pots too they work great until I can get them in the ground. Great video! TFS.
  • @salwa4ever818
    Thanks for amazing videos, very informative and full of great ideas and guidance. I really enjoy watching your videos, all the best and keep up the good work
  • Hey Alexandria, outside of tropical fruit, you can basically grow anything in Southern Ontario! Its best to grow from starters for the warm weather crops like peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants....but others like lettuce, carrots, beets, spinach, kale, etc you can most definitely plant seeds now all the way until May in Toronto. Cheers, best of luck!!!
  • Hello there !
    I found your video very informative and easy to follow, but you didn't talk about the lightning. I live in Illinois and want to start my seeds soon. Could you recommend the lights and how long we need to leave the light on ? anyone please..
    Thanks
  • @jsfarmgirl
    It is a nice informative video but it would be nice to be told how to keep the relative humidity at 90 to 100 percent.
  • @growagarden54
    Glad I found your video on peppers and subscribed. Do you use lights over the peppers? If so, how long should the lights be on? Thank you.
  • @gnr7838
    I really need some of those 4 inch square pots, where do you get yours?
  • @Bellamoon111.
    I'm wanting to start hardening off my plants but I'm having major issues with gnat infestation and root mites. I can't get rid of them and they are destroying my yard. How can I kill these bugs and prevent infestation? I've tried peroxide + water, fungicide 3 spray, cinnamon. Nothing has worked
  • Are the transplants still in need of a heat mat? Or just the propagator and lights?
  • @Donna_G
    I've never tried growing peppers from seed. I always just got plants. One year, I saw a plant that had a tag which indicated it was a sweet banana pepper. It showed a pepper that was elongated and yellow. I thought that since it was a sweet pepper it would not have the same bite that a jalapeno pepper would have. But, it ended up tasting like a jalapeno pepper instead of a sweet pepper. I have never tried this kind of pepper again. Is it normal for sweet peppers to have a bite to them; or, could the plant I purchased been mislabled?
  • @OakKnobFarm
    My peppers should be ready for transplant next weekend.
    Careful: Those pots are actually 3.5", not 4". The trays are 10" x 20" . A have a few actual 4" pots and can only fit 2 rows of 5 pots per tray. to get 18 you need 3.5"
  • @EE-jc3wp
    So regular organic potting mix?
  • how long does it normally take for sweet bell peppers to get there first true sets of leaves? I have just the undifferentiated ones and it's been weeks
