When the winter comes, I’m not sure if you do this, but I do. I will take a few of those pepper plants and plant them in a 5 gallon bag or a pot and over winter them because what happens is when spring starts again they will be blooming and giving you peppers before the new seedlings do so I have two overwinter pepper trees, three years old and I am getting big hand size peppers from them right now until the other ones start which flowering now

When you say overwinter, are you keeping them in the house or heated garage? Do you keep watered them through winter?

@MorganHillFarms

As long as your temps don’t get close to or below freezing, you will be fine if they are in the garage. If it’s too cold, you could definitely bring them inside and water occasionally. They shouldn’t need too much water.

Здравствуйте! Да, получаются перцовые деревья.... Это хлопотно, но очень интересно...Мы выкапываем сильные кусты перца, подрезаем немного корни, обрезаем все зелёные стебли, оставляем только крепкие ствол и ветки (скелет)... высаживаем в небольшой горшок, опрыскиваем от вредителей и болезней. Заносим домой на подоконник, поливаем, часто обрабатываем от вредителей... когда начинают появляться листья, подкармливаем и ставим под лампы освещения.... Весной можно высадить в сад-огород. Москва. Удачи Вам и вкусных урожаев!

I do the same! Keep them in the laundry room with some sun and water as needed. Peppers all winter. I hand pollinate the blooms. Third and last year for my jalapeño. But will overwinter some new ones this year!

This is great information! Especially the info on fertilizing with respect to, not only what is recommended and why, but also what not to use, like extra nitrogen. This is very helpful! Gotta say, though, I really feel for your back! That's a lot of bending and standing! Please take care!

Looks great.

Can you do a video on the watering system that you have in those raised beds? Also what and where to order the components?

Thank you for your kind words. Im so glad you are enjoying my channel! I take the flowers and buds off because the plants are very small. They need to put all their energy into developing a good root system. Once they are bigger, I'll allow the blossoms to develop into fruit. If I didn't pick off the blossoms, I would get peppers sooner, but the plant would never produce a bountiful harvest as it will when you allow it to focus on root production in the early season. The bigger the root system, the more nutrients the plant can take up and the better fruit production you'll have:). Hope that helps

Welcome!!

Have you ever brought you peppers in for the winter then put them out in spring? I it last year and about ready to put them out. I was wondering if you had any tips to make the transition go well.

@MorganHillFarms

12 күн бұрын

I haven't overwintered my peppers yet, but I plan to do that with just a few pepper plants this year so we can have peppers for fresh eating prior to the main preserving harvest!

My bell pepper plants have a whole bunch of flower buds forming at the tip of the plant. I missed up potting them at the right time. We have a very short growing season and I do not want to risk topping them off! Wonder how to remove those buds without hurting any of the top foliage 😢

@MorganHillFarms

12 күн бұрын

You can let the little buds grow a bit larger and then pinch them off. I think you'd be just fine doing that!

Since I already planted mine, can I go ahead and add the amendments? They are in a new bed that got aome good compost.

@MorganHillFarms

12 күн бұрын

Yes you can. Just work it into the top inch or so of soil without disturbing the roots of your peppers. You'll be just fine to do it this way!

I planted my pepper seedlings out a week ago, and many have blooms and small peppers. I’m in the same area as you - would it be worth my while to go out and pick off blooms and baby peppers or is it too late now?

@MorganHillFarms

20 күн бұрын

I would pick them off asap. I missed a few flowers and had a couple of tiny peppers start growing. As soon as I saw them, I took them off. It will divert the energy back to root production which is what you want right now:)

Do you use bug repellent to keep mosquitos and other bugs from biting you? Your skin looks so good. I'm in IN and can't go out to my garden without getting eaten up by them. I'm trying what they say is a more natural bug repellent, listerine, this year cause I don't want to use all those chemicals on my skin.

@MorganHillFarms

We are just now starting to see a few mosquitos. Honestly, the garden gets so hot that they really don't bother me. If I was in the shade of one of our Pecan trees, they would eat me alive. I don't use any type of bug repellant or sprays. If I am ever worried about it, I will just wear a light long sleeve button up shirt to keep the critters off of me:)

Sorry, if I missed this point - but… do you plant your peppers deep, like you do tomato plants? Do peppers produce roots along their stems, if planted deeper? I love to pinch my peppers so that they put on more stems and fill out!

I don't plant them anymore than 1/2- 1 inch deeper than they were in their soil block. They do not put out roots like tomatoes do.

Why do you keep the soil level in your beds so low, compared to how deep the beds are? Are you using the walls of the bed to help shade the plants when the sun is low or something? Just curious, thanks.

@MorganHillFarms

17 күн бұрын

When we built the garden, we filled the beds with leaves, compost, grass clippings, logs and sticks etc. The level has decreased as these things have decomposed. I do not have any barrier at the bottom of the beds so my plants can reach into the native soil below. I could fill them to the top, but that would be a lot of soil and money. I do top off with a few inches of compost every year though:)

What base did you use? You should link the products you used down below. Like other channels do. Just a suggestion.
