  • In recent years I've gotten interested in breeding peppers. I've already created a few new varieties, and I'm working on about a dozen more. Along with the peppers in this video, I hope to make more available at some point. Update: The seeds for these peppers are now available on Matt's site. His website is at www.mattspeppers.com
    He is also on Instagram and Facebook.
    In the interest of full disclosure, I do benefit from my seeds sold on Matt's site.
    Please let us know if you've ever grown any of my peppers. Thanks for watching!

    I definitely want the Jimmy Nardello cross because we love frying peppers and the variegated pepper because it’s lovely.

    • @MidwestGardener
      @MidwestGardener  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes, I think the Jimmy Nardello cross would make a good frying pepper. There is something about variegated peppers that is hard to resist for me.

    You have a lot of interesting pepper projects. Congrats. I think I would like the cross between the Corbacki (I hope I spelled that correctly) and the Jimmy Nardelo. I didn't get a lot of Jimmy Nardelo peppers when I grew them, i didn't plant enough plants.. I did like their taste.
    I hope you have a great time with your crosses this winter. Take care and have a great weekend.🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

    Glad to hear you'll have more seeds on Matt's this year. I've saved my own seeds from the Midnight Eclipse with the long pods. Plan to try some of these, and more of the ones you provided, next year as it is one of the most beautiful pepper plants I've grown -- and all the other ornamentals with similar leaves are F1 hybrids.
    Since it's November, I'm trying to learn more about how peppers and tomatoes can survive frosts. My Old Garden is still lush with peppers and two still-producing tomatoes -- I covered most of it twice during 28F nights. The sunny allotment bed was 100% killed by frost. My New Garden, which i never covered, took some damage (mostly to C. Annuum peppers) but other species were fine. I'm puzzled why there are such big differences in frost survival rates, i'm convinced there are more factors than just raw temperature. I think I need to deploy more temperature sensors.

    • @MidwestGardener
      @MidwestGardener  5 місяців тому

      When he gets the pepper added from last year, Matt will have enough peppers to keep my busy for quite a while just checking them all out.
      We had multiple frosts before everything got killed by a hard freeze. I noticed that some plants definitely held up better than others. Micro climates can make a difference too. It would be fun to have a couple of acres to run some experiments with....and a couple more decades to do it :)

    • @davidniemi6553
      @davidniemi6553 5 місяців тому +1

      So far the most unsurprising factors that help are being close to the ground and being near a south-facing wall (my main weather station is about 10' off the ground and not near any structures). But New Garden has neither of these advantages, and is on a gentle west-facing slope, and it fared much better than the raised bed in the sunny allotment (which is miles from my house so I can't monitor its temperature from here. Do you know what temperature your hard freeze reached?
