Hey All. Right Now I Have A Set Of Jalapeno And Sweet Banana Pepers Outside. This Is The First Time I Have Grown Pepers. Right Now There Is 3 15" Tall Plants In One 16 Gallon Container. I Have One Container For The Jalapeno And One For The Banana. If There Is Any Advise For Me That Would Be Great. I Will Try And Post Pics Of Them Soon.

i'm currently growing some habanero, sweet banana, cali. hybrid bells, tabasco, and some type of small "bird" pepper (african i believe?). also, maybe someone here can help me; i have at least 3-400 tabasco pepper plants (@ 2-3in tall) that i want to transplant into small individual containers and sell. i know how to do it all but am stuck at the selling part. what would you do? should i try to sell them online somewhere; which could get more money, but shipping is a problem. or should i try to call nurseries in the area and sell them in bulk??

I have a habanero plant growing in a container and 2 jalapeno plants growing in a drip system. Both under a 400W HPS light. I accidently dried my halapeno out a few days ago and lost my first 4 (and biggest) buds Otherwise everything is really good.

gogrow if i was in you situation i would try the nursery first. if they dont want them then try the online thing. your customers should pay for the shipping so all you would have to do is drop them off at the shipper

thanks for your opinion bro... as far as your situation, peppers are perfect container plants. only advice i can give you is, just like weed, dont over-love them. and watch your ferts too, too much nitrogen in bloom will hamper pepper development.

Thanks GG. I have been reading up on pepper growing. unfortunately i have found very little information and the info that I did find was contradicting. Do you know of a good site to get info?

I just planted some Jalepeno seeds from some peppers I bought at the store. Want to see if the will sprout, keep them an indoor plant like my tomato.. I am Looking to plant Anaheim green chili peppers in a container also.....

 

[cadenza11]

i think they should be dried first though...

 

[gogrow]

i think they should be dried first though...

they can/will still sprout fresh out the pepper... just make sure to dry them well before you try to store them or else they will mold

I ended up giving half of my crop away.
