How do you make the banana water? How long can you leave the banana peels in the water before it will go bad?
@@akplayer007 I looked on Google and found lots of info. Hope this helps until the Doctor is in!

Do the little starter pots have drainage holes?
@@oneball1926 Yes, they do. Here's the link to the video which shows how I make them czcams.com/video/tJQpUPSV3As/video.html
This is how a YT instructor should operate. Purely thorough information, simple format and well organized. Not to even mention the genius methods that sets this channel far apart in a unique way from the deep pool of subpar channels out there. Can't even believe this is free information! Absolutely amazing work! Very happy I found this channel. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind compliments. Welcome to the family.
@@dr_obisgarden thank you
As Food prices increase, many people will find this very useful. Thank you.
You had me at the onions, but when I saw the pepper seeds in banana peels, I liked and subscribed.
Thanks, @tegoblue! 😊 Welcome to the family.
you deserve many subscriber my friend. I have been gardening for many years and you teach me new techniques every video.
Thanks for your kind compliments and for your support.
He really does
You literally said what I was thinking. Really!! Everytime I watch his videos, I ALWAYS learn new useful techniques and I'm certainly very motivated as well! 😊💪
@@TheRealKitWalker Me too.
I just subcrib now, he is the best...
HE REuses plastic bottles and containers in such a lovely way!!!
Really inspiring.
Thanks. I'm glad you're inspired by my work. 😊
Very nice. We in Romania are used to putting two peppers together. They support themselves better when they grow and have a higher production through cross-pollination. Anyway Bravo!!!!
Thank you man. Now can I grow chili without any trouble. Your video is comprehensive and easy. You are the best chili grower on this channel.😊
Thanks for your kind compliments 😊. Best wishes with your garden.
I conducted an experiment when germinating pepper and eggplant seeds over the past few weeks, following this method. In a nursery flat, I planted one row of each variety in plain soil, followed by a row with banana peel. I covered it for the first week as described in the video. Additionally, I used a heat mat.
Results: germination of some varieties was better than others, but overwhelmingly the seeds without banana germinated better. There are only TWO seedlings in the whole tray that germinated in the banana rows. They do look healthy, but so do the other seedlings. I will continue to watch their growth and see how it compares to the non-banana plants.
I did do some research prior to the experiment, and there is a scientific basis for this method. I found several research papers that discussed ethylene gas as something that can help break germination in "some plants". Most plants mentioned were not things you would grow in the garden. I also think it's valid that the banana peel would help hold moisture by the seed and offer nutrients to the seedling, so these results were disappointing.
Caveats: I used seed packet seed and saved garden seed rather than seeds straight out of a fresh pepper. Overall pepper germination was not great and I'm hoping more might still germinate (one sprouted yesterday) but so far none of the pepper seedlings are from the banana rows. The two banana peel seedlings that sprouted were Black Beauty eggplant, which had 100% germination in the non-banana row. What needs to be fixed about this experiment? Seeds should have been planted in separate trays instead of rows. If it's the ethylene gas that affects germination, then the neighboring rows might have benefited from the gas while something in the banana peel might have directly inhibited the other rows. A follow-up experiment might include 3 trays: one with banana peel, one without, and one with banana on the side but not in contact with seedlings. It is possible my bananas were sprayed with something the seeds didn't like. Maybe washing bananas prior to peeling would be a good idea. It could also be down to climate (high desert, here) or even the variety or freshness of pepper seeds. I'll continue to experiment and suggest anyone else interested does the same and shares their info. The varieties I planted were Black Beauty eggplant, Rosa Bianca eggplant, Neimat's Batir eggplant, Chimayo pepper, Shishito pepper, and Pimento pepper. (The last two usually take a long time to germinate.)
All my best to Dr. Obi with many thanks for introducing this interesting method. (It clearly works for you!)
Wow! Thanks for sharing the results of your detailed method. I'm not surprised at your results since you used seed packets. I've also noticed that the method works best with fresh seeds. I don't know why it is so but it may probably have to do with increased dormancy in the dry seeds. The ethylene produced in banana peel is very small compared to the banana fruit itself so it may not be sufficient for dry seeds. Also, when using the banana peel, cutting it into pieces promotes faster break down to make nutrients available to seedlings faster. Thanks once again for sharing. Happy gardening.
@@dr_obisgarden Thank you. This does make sense! I'll have to try this method using fresh seeds. The only thing is that I can't get fresh seeds of the varieties I want to grow at the time I need to grow them. Maybe I'll add some standard jalapeños to the mix. Those are always available and I do use them on everything.
@Kate Wrath I find with the packet seeds they need to be kept moist, otherwise they don't sprout. If I plant with fresh seeds, I usually have better results. I have bell peppers and 3 different kinds of chilli peppers growing from fresh seeds.
I'm going to try the banana method with some chillies I bought today : habanero, Thai and cayenne.
I planted jalapeños from bought seeds and I kept them moist, watered twice a day (we are currently enjoying a very hot summer), and within roughly 30 days, I had flowers developing on my plants.. Hope this helps!
I heard that bananas are one of the most sprayed fruit in the world, even organic ones with stuff that stops them to rippen fast, stops em from going brown etc so maybe that has something to do with it as well??
Did you use organic banana?
love your reuse of bottles and water containers
Thanks. It saves money 💵😉!
Better gardener than me using recycled bottles! Subscribed and liked sir!!!
Very informative and well explained how to grow pepper from seed. Keep up the great work.
Glad to know that you found the video useful. Thanks.
I appreciate the full procedure from seedlings ,to harvest time ,watching from the rocky mountains of northern Philippines😊 😊😊(i'm a man)
Thanks, man!
Dr obi you are the star wars hero of gardening. ...applause...
Thanks for the kind compliment.☺️ May the force be with you and make your garden beautiful.
Thanks for sharing love chillies Dr
This is a good seed starting strategy. Thumbs up from Florida.
Thank you for sharing this lovely video Dr. I love gardening and would definitely try this.
Thank you for sharing this technique! I'm really excited to attempt it for myself very soon. Hopefully I can grow enough chilies to share with my neighbours ❤
You did a fantastic job sir. The banana peel is the ticket to promote initial growth from the nutrients found in the peel!
I am really impressed to see this vlog,how to grow endless harvesting of peppers,I,ll try this method to grow peppers. Thanks. Khalid Mahmoud Gujarat Pakistan
Thanks, my Pakistani friend.
Salam brother thanks for your time and support for this video it’s really been productive.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wailakum Salam! You're welcome. Glad that you found it useful.
You are great Sir, I really enjoyed all your video, they are very simple to understand.you really mean well for the viewers thanks God bless you.
.
Thanks for your kind compliment. God bless you too.
I just found your channel and now I’m binge watching all your videos :) thank you for the information and entertainment Obi!
Always a pleasure to share. Thanks for the support. Welcome to the family.
Thanks for sharing your method of growing peppers, I will certainly try it.
I will try this amigo and keep you posted. Thank you 🙏
Beautiful stuff, great lesson, I'll be starting my plantation soon. I am inspired an motivated.
Sounds good. Happy gardening!
I love how you use basic throw away items to grow your food, totally awesome and inspring ;)
Great video! I love chilies with eggs so simple the way you explain it!!
New technique to sow the seeds using banana peel for embedding .thanks very much doctor .
You are most welcome.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 saving this video for when our planting season begins. Thanks again for such an awesome tutorial.
I'm glad you found it useful. Happy gardening.
He really does
Great process for pepper growing - going to give it a shot in a couple months.
I'm on it!!!! thank you so much!
Brilliant video, excellent explanation of the process and some great tips! Thank you for taking the time to post.
Thanks for the kind compliments. Well appreciated.
Thank you Dr, this is one of the best gardening videos I’ve seen. You’ve won my subscription and i look forward to watching many more. I imagine that my conditions in Australia will suit this method also.
Thanks for subscribing. Welcome to the family. I'm sure you can do this in Australia. Happy gardening.
Banana trick is great including peels in water. Thank you.
I can confirm that this method works in Melbourne Australia, while using seeds from fresh red chilli. almost every seed germinated. It did not work with dry chilli seeds though. i will try again with dry seeds. However, i used transparent storage box, instead of a plastic bag.
@@4w1y great to know it worked for you. Not sure about the dry seeds though. Generally dry seeds would take longer to germinate. I'll also give it a try.
@@4w1y thanks for replying I’m in WA. I have no trouble germinating chillies normally but thought I’d give this a try, no success yet but I’ve just put fresh capsicum 🫑seeds in with the banana peels 🤞🏼. We don’t get frosts where I’m living so these can grow most of the year here.
Wow those plants look amazing
Thanks for sharing! These are some awesome first time tips for me to really appreciate, I've seen a lot of gardening on CZcams...but your unique method of planting, is fantastic! 👍👍👍👍
I am glad I watched your most interesting video about how to grow pepper so easy and abundantly, thank you.
Thank you. I'm always happy to share.
Such a nice show,I grow Tabasco peppers here in Florida, I have them year round,was told by a Mexican lady in California years ago to cut the peppers off the plant, believe me it works, have had the same plants for several years now, I cut them back during the winter months and bring them inside on cold nights,egg shells ground up fine is good for peppers too
Thanks for the insights. Peppers can actually be grown as perennials with the right care in the absence of diseases.
Just a little comedy here, I watched a mocking bird eating Tabasco peppers off one of my plants one morning, sure hope it knew what it was in for
This is a wonderful video, it encourages me to try planting after many failures 🙏
I love your peppers! Thank you
So glad I came across your video, I love chili 🌶️ peppers and your presentation makes it look very simple and practical as to what containers used in planting and replanting the chilis, thanks a millions….see you new time for sure🙏👏.
Not going to lie one of the main reasons I clicked on this is because of how damn well your chilli plants are shaped! That's such a beautiful shape/structure
Thanks.
Agreed, they're lovely.
Great lesson! Thanks!
BRILLIANT ! I'm doing it this way this year.
There will be many happy farmers around here, Doc.🌱 Thx 😁✌️
I loved your demonstration and now have my chillies
Oh Wow! I am excited to do this. I buy chili peppers (and bananas) every Friday, but this time I am not going to throw away the seeds and peels. It is winter here, and I am at 5000 feet so there is snow on the ground. I hope this will work indoors. But if a grow light isn't enough, spring will come again. Thank you!
My pleasure. Happy gardening.
Which country is that ? When heat hear in Nigeria is unbearable.
How did it go? I am wondering if this is possible indoors.
Very educational video, you should do a short video of the solution you were using to spray your plants and the banana solution in case some people didn't get it.
Thanks, I'll work our something.
Thank you Dr. Obi, for sharing and explaining how to grow chillies at home. The method
you showed is very clear, and soon I will begin growing chillies in my garden soon!
A simple but a useful tips... Thank you i try it on my chilli seed.. And plant again
Thank you very much sir. Great ideas!!!
You can also make dried chili flakes from you left-over peppers :) Great video!
Great tip! Thanks for sharing.
This is awesome. My brother, try planting 2 pepper plants per pot. They actually love growing together. God bless you.
If the container is big or if growing directly in the ground, it's okay to grow 2 together. However for a small container growing 2 plants together will result in rapid depletion of soil moisture and nutrients. You have to water frequently especially when the plants grow big. The number and size of fruits may suffer if you can't keep up...
@@dr_obisgarden Very true. I use 5 gallon buckets and plant 2 pepper plants. They do well, but as you said, required more attention on moisture and nutrients.
I just found you today but I love your work already, God richly bless you Sir🙌🙏
Wow what beautiful pepper plants good job
This gave me the idea to start my seeds in k cups. I usually transplant a couple of times to larger cups anyway. I can cut the bottoms off to push out when before removing. I wish I could find plastic bottles with the wide cap, the water bottles I have won't stand with the small cap. With the 9 and 6 hole trays, sometimes I'd have the tray taking space with just 1 or 2 very small seedlings and more than half of the mini tray empty. With the k cups, I can get rid of them as I transplant each.
Sounds great! Happy gardening.
Try a "Gatorade" or other sports drink bottle.
Not sure what compost slurry is. I am currently trying your technique for several varieties of peppers. Love these ideas and your results!
Probably adding compost to water, allowing to sit for a while (aeration is good if you can but not 100% necessary), then applying to plants. It looks like he applies the whole mix. Some people strain to make a tea.
@@KateWrath. I don’t have my own compost. So, do I buy a bag of this in a store and mix in water ? You see to know about this. I know nothing .
@@dizziechef9502 A good question, for there are many who would love to know the answer/s.
That liquid slurry is the banana peel soak in water for days I guessed.
I'm watching from Botswana ,we learn a lot from you, especially with banana peels
That's heartwarming to know. Thanks for being a part of the family.
With a pleasure,God bless you 🙏🙏🙏
From S Africa, love the simplicity. Great video, you have given me some great tips. I love growing chillies.
This is really impressive and your explanation makes it look so simple. I'll try and replicate this on a larger scale in a few months time. I'm guessing these methods also apply to growing habaneros.
I've not tried it on habaneros but I think It'll work since they take slightly longer to germinate. I've used it with bell peppers but germination was delayed although the seedlings grew vigorously after germination. Happy gardening or farming!
@@dr_obisgarden thank you very much for your response.
Love this! I had no idea that the banana peel could help break dormancy. Some chiles take more than a month to germinate under normal conditions, so this could be a huge time saver! What other kinds of seeds does it help to germinate?
I feel like regardless of helping or not, it immediately adds nutrients to the soil and plant within immediate reach. I cant imagine it wouldnt help any and all seeds?
yeah I grew ghost peppers one year and it took 45 days to germinate so I had to plant it late like late June didnt get a big crop so start your indoors peppers now! January or February if you live in a temperate climate so they will be big by the time you plant them outside in april and may
I living Los angles Ca and using this method with heat and it take me 3 day to germinate my hot pepper big thai hybrid which sale at home depot
@@UMadUCauseBad it depends. I use coffeegrind, bananapeel and egg shell as fertiliser. It depends on the plant's needs... Often it helps that the banana peel is always a bit moist and retains moisture for a while. Coconut peel does the same. I live in a much colder climate, sometimes I uuse toilet paper and wrap it in to make it speed up a little. With pepper seeds I use a little device that warms it up. It's about meeting the plant's needs - it will definitely not be the same for every plant.
Experiment a bit - or find out what's in bananapeel and check the needs of plants in scientific articles. I've looked in to stuff, but since my climate isn't your climate, results might vary... Heat is the biggest problem here... And moisture in the air...
For me, dunking a seed in water before I plant it helps a lot. Some seeds I put in the refrigerator. Others I need to freeze - to emulate winter. Some seeds won't germinate if I don't put them in the refrigerator for a month... In sand... (because nutrients will mess things up).
I hope someone has a list - but I suppose such people won't even bother to look at this video -.-
And like said, the list might not work in all climates, situations.
Mines took 3 days to germinate
Very helpful l love your videos, am planting chillies right now
Thanks a lot Dr oboi
Your audio is muffled, but otherwise this is a well done video!
how do you deal with the stupid super tiny insects that look like white dots in the back of the leaves? that's been my biggest issue lately
thats lice, spray with water containing either lemon juice works, banana peels around the bottom, washing liquid also works i hear
I have subscribed long ago on this channel but don't receive notifications regularly.
I learned a lot from your videos. I do rewatch regularly anytime I want to plant.
Thanks doctor!
Thanks for the support. Sometimes CZcams delays in sending out notifications to subscribers. Also sometime if you ignore notification from a particular channel for a while CZcams will likely cease sending notifications for that channel.
Amazing video ! I have the urge to grow my own now
Hi Dr Obi ... I happened to see your video
on planting chillies.
Chillies are expensive nowadays n I think I can follow your method.
If I'm successful in two months I have a few neighbour's to share my chilli harvest.
Thank you so very much for your simple n clear instructions.
I love peppers, and you gave a lot of great information. I can't wait to try this. Thanks for the valuable information. Subbed.
Glad that you found this useful. Thanks for subbing. Welcome to the family.
great and easy understandable video. thank you very much :)
Love it. Big tings a gwan. Love from Africa Brother Dr Obi
So simple yet so effective
Magic. What a great video.
i like the recycling that you did here, bravo!
I have enjoyed your work and I'm going to put it in practice
Excellent video! Thank you
Your teaching has been so helpful to me, thank you!
Glad to hear that 🙂. Best wishes with your garden.
You know what you are talking about and i like the humble make do with whatever you find around you. Respect.
Thank you. Using whatever is available saves 💰.
Awesome video mate, I just planted some habanero and Jalapeño seeds using some old banana peels as in your video.
Thank you from Kalgoorlie, Western Australia.
Thanks, mate! I'm glad you found it useful.
Those plants are beautiful
I was so so so happy to watch your video
Thank you sir for this lovely video ❤️
yeah Thanks Doc man..!! awesome info
Excellent advice! Thanks for your expertise and suggestions
My pleasure!
Thanks man! I Will try your tips and tricks when the weather is beter here in the Netherlands. I love growing things and making hot sauce. Keep posting video’s please!
Sounds great! Thanks for watching!
Thanks brother. Very informative stuff
Thanks for information my friend
Thank you my friend! Regards from Germany
Thank you, my German friend! Cheers!
Outstanding! I learned a lot. Thank you for the great presentation.
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing. I just used this process to grow some great capsicum i came across. All winter I load up my big raised beds with fish frames and banana peel. The summer growth is thick and lush. Fruiting is massive. I also use a vacuum sealer to seal all my bags. I do it with fish and veggies, Stuff lasts for years.
Great to see this, I have liked and subbed.
Strangely, I too am in Australia.......
Glad to hear that you use a similar process to get great results. Thanks for subscribing. Welcome to the family!
It's always interesting to learn something New. Thnk u.
Showing the method and sharing the tips !!!! , you are Great 🙋..
I appreciate that!
Thank you Dr share this method, I will try to plant pepper learned from you, good luck🥰🥰🥰🥰😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
What a brilliant video! And what a great gardener is Dr Obi.Subscribed.
Thanks for the kind compliments and for subscribing. Welcome to the family 🤠.
Great video, thank you for posting:)
Great video! Very informative. Living in the midwest USA, I never would have thought of, or known about starting seeds on banana peels. Also, starting the seeds in recycled bottles is brilliant. You can poke them out by taking off the lid instead of destroying the container. Thank you!!!
My pleasure. Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much!
My new Spring project.
Awesome!
Great video. Doing my first round of peppers. I'll be following your method
Glad to hear that. Happy gardening.
Relaxing and informative. Awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!
