I agree 💯 with you Travis! I much prefer head lettuce than the “Cut & come again” nonsense. I just sew lettuce every week all fall, winter & spring. I hate pelleted lettuce! They are twice as expensive and in my experience they don’t germinate consistently. Thanks for another great video! ❤
I'm one of those that hate the pelleted seeds for many of the reasons you mentioned. I finally got around to trying your method of putting perlite on the top of my seed starting trays. Germination rate has been near 100% for everything. Game changer.
Datil peppers take a while before you get any peppers. The time till maturity for the pepper is approximately 5 months and the plant can grow 18 inches (1 ft 6 in).[8] Its color ranges between green, yellow and orange. The datil pepper is approximately 12 times hotter than a jalapeño on the Scoville heat scale. It has similar features to a habanero, a pepper also from the chinense species. It is longer and skinnier and sweeter than the habanero.[5]
Received my Egyptian walking onions today and planted them this evening. My Louisiana scallions are mostly up and spreading. I have onion seeds up under my grow lights.
As a fellow grower, I loved seeing the perlite fall in on top of the trays. It showed you don’t have a heap of substrate over the top the of tray and looks real professional. I also like my dawgs, but they wear maroon and white, don’t downvote for that 😂
I received my walking onions today, gave them a nice soaking to hydrate them, and planted them right away. Looking forward to perpetual onions! Thanks for the onions.
greenhouse heat probably why lush pepper plant dropping blooms. I have noticed my pepper plants drop lots on hot days . Side note we got into mid 80's today and avg first frost is tomorow in my zone 3 so its busy busy time
Typically, when my peppers drop their blooms, try cutting back on watering. I've had better luck with a 5 gallon bucket instead of a growers bucket and water when the soil is dry. They don't like wet feet. Along with times that require heavy watering when starting once they develope blooms cut back. That's what my momma taught me.
I have found that with most Capsicum Chinense varieties I grow, which Datil is a member, when you grow them in a greenhouse they can get too hot and will drop blooms. It’ll probably start setting a ton of peppers when it cools off a little bit. Also when I grow in my greenhouse I take an electric toothbrush and touch the back to the pepper flowers or stem near a bloom and pollination is much better. I took the last couple years off but typically I grow close to 100 varieties of super hot peppers every year and they can be a lot more challenge than the Capsicum Annum family of peppers that Jalapeño and bell peppers are members of.
Hello jared since you grow so many peppers I have a question for you. I am trying to grow some Habanadas and Datils but I cant seem to get them to germinate this is my first time trying both of these varieties but I have grown lots of habaneros and other hot peppers in the past but neither of these varieties are sprouting I live in central Fl and its been hot 93 to 97 and I have them on my back porch this is my 2nd attempt at them I bailed on the first tray of both Datil and Habanada and ordered new seeds and its been 14 days with this attempt and still nothing any suggestion?
@@grimzly08 These types can be difficult to germinate. They definitely prefer warm soil that has a constant temp above 80 degrees. I would recommend using a heat mat and germinating them inside. Also use something on the top to keep the moisture and humidity levels up until they germinate. I’ve had them take 4-6 weeks to germinate in the past. One trick that can help is to put the seeds in a damp paper towel, get it wet and squeeze all the water out till it stops dripping, put the seeds in it, put it in a ziplock bag, stick it on your refrigerator, and check them every couple days. As soon as the little tap root starts poking out put it in slightly damp potting soil in a solo cup or seed tray and cover with plastic wrap till you see it emerge from the soil. I also prefer to bottom water these types of peppers till they have gotten established. Good luck, I hope they germinate for you.
My datil peppers are getting big but just started to bud. I was wondering if they ever would! I'm in 9A just 40 minutes north of St. Augustine, where datils are the Minorcan staple.
Haha. I though was the only one who grew Datil Peppers. There a bit of a N.FL/S. GA regional variety, it seems. Mine are very productive all through the Summer/Fall, but they can get a bit of blight in the super hot/wet Summer months. Perhaps, you need more/better pollinators to help the fruit set. Maybe try setting it outside the greenhouse for a few days to see if some more bees/bugs can get to it. Looks very healthy otherwise. The shorter days may be an issue, but I don't think most pepper varieties are that photo-sensitive. Cheers.
I am having the same problem with my peppers. Its not the same variety as your but its full of flowers but never any peppers. And mine are in the ground and was fed really wrll
I think a great idea for a video would be special fertlizers u mentioned a couple of times over the years...like what plants...why and when to use... Growing artichokes...growing asparagus...and u got the land..boggles me u dont grow them in the south...
Travis quit feeding it, get it in the ground and let it go. Water once a week. They can take the heat I have mine in a place where they get afternoon shade
Great video. I received my Egyptian Walking Onion bulbs and Short Day Onion seeds in only 5 days! Best customer service ever! Should I plant the walking onions now, or should I wait a little while? I'm in Florida 9b and we still get 90 degree days. Thanks.
What is your opinion on growing onions in zone 8a Athens, GA? Most of the information I have read recommends putting out transplants around February 15th. I see in your area of south GA you plant them out in November and over winter them.
You could overwinter them in Athens if you have a way to cover them when the temps get below 20. Been a few years since I lived up there, but I don't remember that happening that often. Our onions survived 17 degrees last year. They got burnt, but they recovered.
Datil take longer. It looks really healthy. We live right by the Mexico border and Datil still take longer, all my other peppers are going full on crazy much sooner.
I don't like the pelleted seeds because I heard that they have to be used the first year, and do not stay fresh and store well over to the next year. I bought a large quantity of seeds this year that were pelleted, but I didn't learn that about them until it was too late. I will not buy them again.
Travis doesn't grow Eazy Leaf or Salanova lettuce. Bro, once you grow those lettuces and taste em' there is no going back. Brentwood and Ezrilla are the best two for Georgia. I started them in late August here in Georgia and they are almost ready for their first cut. No bolting with these two varieties. They are insanely heat tolerant. I can't grow enough of this stuff. It flies off the table at the market. Charging around $12 a pound too. YEEHAW! If it isn't Eazy Leaf or Salanova it is dead to me! The seeds are more expensive because the quality is gourmet. You can let them grow full heads and cut the head and they grow another head. There is just no comparison. - Your Friendly Salanova and Eazy Leaf Shill
I've grown Salanova and it's okay. But I'd always seem to get a significant amount of rotting or leaf damage on the bottom of the heads. That's why I stopped growing it. But it is very pretty and tasty.
@@LazyDogFarm I prefer Eazy Leaf to Salanova, if you have not tried that company give em' a try. It's basically a Salanova knock off but the seeds are cheaper. Brentwood and Ezrilla make a beautiful mix together.
Your sunglasses are polarized. So is the thin film on the screen. I have the same issue with this phone, I can't watch anything in landscape, only portrait.
Polarized sunglasses? Cock your head at a 45 degree angle when you look at that screen. And I love pelleted seed Even the tomato seeds but especially lettuce and carrots. I thought everyone liked an easy to handle pellet over some seed about the size of big dust.
Ive noticed if they have clay they dont germinate next year...thats why i dont like them...i have a small garden...for example i do about 60 total brassicas ...and have about 20 to 30 aeeds left over of each kind...that are worthless

I tried it..and inused too heavy perlite so i had some vermiculite and it worked too....like he said.
Glad it worked well for you!
I agree 💯
Never ever heard pelleted seeds need to be watered from top. I know they need a lot of water to germinate. Many grand blessings everyone everywhere.
A bit of feedback on your new camera. The image was very good, crisp, and focus was exceptional. The sound was excellent. Looks to be a good choice.
Thanks Jimmy!
I knew something was off on Fridays video, picture all jittery and not focused. new camera looking good.
Hi, Travis. Good job with today’s video. Thanks for the info about pelleted seeds. Best wishes, Kate

Wind and bees help pollinate peppers outside. Plant may produce more outside the greenhouse.

It needs wet soil, it's probably root bound
, it also needs full sun for that capsaicin

Turn the camera 90 degrees to see if it is a polarization issue with your glasses.
Came here to say the same thing
I have the same issue with my fish finder
That was it. Simple fix was a glass screen protection piece for the camera.

Probably is unless you have a way to cover them.

It's just to hot for peppers, be patient they will produce till a freeze!!!

Too much nitrogen will limit production from the peppers. Keep it alive through the winter and next year find a large pot for the greenhouse.

Try glasses that either are or aren't polarized. The opposite of whatever you're wearing
