  • Episode 5 in our How to Grow Hot Peppers from Seed series. In this episode, we prune the tops of hot pepper plants (first time for us) and show some results one week after topping. We’ve recorded a new song just for this video that we hope you’ll enjoy.

    I have a feeling that song will be stuck in my head all day. Cutting at an angle is most helpful plus I staked my pepper plants last year and they still wanted to fall over. So thanks for the tutorial!

    Hello my Jalapenos plant I can see it starting to develop small flowers. It's about 2month old I live in Miami Fl. Can I still top it?

    • @7PotClub

      It should be fine to top it now. Check out this video where I top some plants around the same age. ruclips.net/video/j1ar8xEmFt0/видео.html

    I did this with my orange habanero last year. Got 8 branches, but I didn’t get fully ripened pods, as it was getting cold outside already.
    How long does topping the peppers delay the harvest date ?

    • @7PotClub
      @7PotClub  3 года назад +1

      It varies. If you do it when they are only weeks old, I don't think it delays them much. If the plant is more mature and you cut off a lot, it could delay it a few weeks. I used to have problems with pods not ripening during the season, and I wonder if better nutrition would help.

    do you top them every year after this experiment?
    was this a huge success?
    edit: my bad i just saw your whole series on them xD
    but would you do this every year or is it just not worth it?

    • @7PotClub

      It has some benefit but overall I don't think it's worth it.

      There's no better compliment you could give me than to tell me my songs are catchy! I've never worked in any of those industries, but I have been writing songs since an early age. On second thought, I guess my work developing websites for brands like Herbal Essences was advertising, though. 😀🌶🎵
