F2 and F3 Pepper Projects - I Like What I'm Seeing So Far
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 сер 2021
- We have several hybrid pepper projects going now. The bees did the original crosses, but I selected the plants to carry forward after that. In this video, I will show you some F3 Black Pearl hybrids, some F2 Purple Flash hybrids, and some F2 hybrids that are a cross between a Lemon Spice Jalapeno, and a Corbaci pepper.
If you have any hybrid pepper projects going, tell us about them in the comments.

A festival of peppers .well done
Thank you!
Really cool and unique plants growing there. So many variations can show up in those first couple seasons and hard to select just a few. That first Black Pearl with the peach/black contrast is a keeper for sure. The last one at 540mark is trying to be everything at once. LOL Really happy to see that weird LSJxCorbaci doing well too. Too much fun. Thanks for the share!
Thanks! I just about to get too many pepper projects to keep up with :)
Beautiful.....
Thanks Tim!
That was a great video presentation of your pepper garden. I mostly enjoyed the little ornamental pepper plants that were so colorful. I haven’t started mine yet due to the cold weather, I will soon start them indoors. I’ve been growing peppers for market back in my days but now I just grow them for its beauty. The whole family here and many friends of mine like their peppers super hot while they eat. As for me, no thank for I don’t have the courage to even try them. I can eat sweet bell peppers and I like them raw too. I’ve been buying ornamental peppers ever since it really attracted me that I could spend $100 of dollars just ordering them on the website. As a matter of fact, it’s attracted me just from watching on u tube especially the ones from a professor from some university. The amazing thing about the peppers is that they’re colorful edible. They are such a show off in the gardens just as beautiful as the flowers. I don’t know if you do sell your seeds on Etsy or EBay but I have bought so many different kinds from both online stores. I’ll be leaving tomorrow to check out the University in Las Cruces, New Mexico because I hear they do have a lot of ornamental peppers there and hopefully I can buy some other varieties there too. Keep up with your videos for I definitely would keep track and watch them. Thanks for sharing your gardening projects.
Thanks for sharing your passion for peppers with us. They are so fun to work with for me. I really enjoy crossing two peppers and coming up with something completely different than either parent. I have several varieties available on Mattspeppers.com. I think he has over two hundred varieties of peppers on his site. Good luck with your peppers this year!
@@MidwestGardener Thank you for that information of Matt’s Peppers. I will surely check it out.
@@rosalinerabago6389 You're welcome!
@@MidwestGardener I just checked Matt’s Pepper website and I am so thankful of you for your suggestion. I am so impressed of the many varieties of hybrids and or crosses. I just got here in El Paso Texas then I’ll head to Las Cruces New Mexico to check out the pepper gardens. And yes, definitely I will be ordering a lot from Matt’s Peppers website. I would like to ask if you have any experience of sprouting Mutant peppers whereas, I don’t know if they’ll come out good. The mutant peppers really attracted me too. I bought a few different ones to try them out. And I can’t wait to get the ones from Matt’s Peppers too. Hope you’d get back to me regarding the Mutant peppers.
@@rosalinerabago6389 Glad you checked out Matt's site. Yes, I've grown some mutants. They are fun pepper to grow if you've never grown one before. They are usually not very productive compared with other peppers, but the foliage is so unique that it's fun to grow them anyway. Good luck!
I'm having a ok season.. my peppers are slooow.. my Thai peppers are HOT lol.. my tomatoes are also taking their time.. but my main concern is my cannabis lol
But my main goal was collecting all the seeds
Usually, August is when our peppers just get started good. I started them extra early this year, and I think that helped. There is still lots of season left.
Very nice work.=Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Eric! Hope the f5s turn out well in a few months.
Good to see those seeds UT sent ya done awesome. Guess that is who sent them. All your peppers are looking really good Mr. Jim. Stay safe!
Yep, UT, Angel and Kiddo sent them to me. They just put up a video of a pepper that really looks like a keeper. I love the color of the one they have already.
Beautiful purple pepper project and garden tour showing us around your garden , good sharing
Thanks a bunch for watching!
Good morning from Coastal Georgia. I truly enjoy and appreciate your videos. My former neighbor had a colorful hot pepper plant growing in a pot on his front porch. It was too hot for me, but then I don’t eat hot peppers although I enjoy growing them.
Thank you for sharing!
Good morning! Yes, some peppers are worth growing just for the pleasure of growing them.
Looking good. I enjoy these videos. I want to do a cross. Maybe I'll get a accidental one. Next year I might try.
Thanks! Sometimes those accidental crosses turn out to be a lot of fun. I know I'm having a blast working with them.
Jim, your F3 pepper plants look great! I love the beauty and diversity that those plants are showing. I hope you can stabilize the seeds from some of those plants. ~Margie
Thanks Margie! I hope I can keep a couple of them close to what they are now.
@@MidwestGardener That would be wonderful!
That's quite a bit of peppers there Jim. I'm curious as to what you do with all of them. A lot of hot sauce??? Since you haven't tasted them yet, will you be doing a tasting video? All of those colors are so pretty together. Good luck with your efforts making new varieties. Have a great week.🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋
We share with friends, family, and the food bank. We also eat a bunch, and freeze a bunch. I'm thinking I might do a taste test of some of these when things start to wind down a little around here. I've been pretty busy for a while. I think we might have a keeper or two in this bunch. You have a great week too!
@@MidwestGardener Those are great things to do with your harvests. I have a hard time finding people to share with. I never thought of a food bank. . I don't think many people like brassicas.
You never know. I know that I do.
And this is why I like your channel so much and I encourage others to subscribe to it! Best of luck on stabilizing your crosses. 👍🏻
Thank you very much for that, David! I really do appreciate that! Believe it or not, I actually planted some of the seeds for some of these indoors recently. I got to doing the math, and realized that I'd better start getting more than one generation per year if I wanted to finish all of the projects I've got going. It's still a heck of a lot of fun for me. Glad you enjoy some of it too.
Your pepper garden is beautiful. Just wondering if you sell pepper seeds of the ones grown in pots that are small like ornamental peppers. If, so I would like to buy seeds especially that ones that have the variegated foliage and also the round ones. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Thank you! I don't sell seeds, but Matts Peppers has a few of my peppers on his site. I've also seen a couple of other vendors that have some of my peppers. I hope to release over a dozen new crosses this fall.
Interesting pepper plants. 👍 Best wishes Bob.
Thanks Bob!!
So pretty! Some of these peppers can be easily mistaken with berries! Cheers 😊
True, they do look a little like berries.
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thanks!
These looks great how do I get some
I had 6 different peppers (F6 versions) that were available at Matts Peppers. Last I checked, 3 were gone, and one of the available 3 was out of stock. So it looks like most of them won't be available until this fall some time.
I missed my chance to start this year…
There's always next year.
I've read that it's necessary to hit F8 or something around that number to stabilize your strain. Is it true ?
Generally speaking, I would say that is probably pretty close in most cases. It kind of depends on what the cross is. Some crosses seem fairly stable at the F6 stage though....and some are still not fully stable after F8 in my opinion.
When you say siblings does that mean the seeds came from the same pepper or different peppers on the same plant?
I mixed the seeds, so they could have come from the same pepper, or different peppers. But they all came from the same plant.
Are they all edible?
Yes they are, but I haven't tried any of these yet.
@@MidwestGardener great .
