before. Thanks for sharing your method Stephen!

Eh bro I know there is beer in that cup I won’t tell anybody 🙂 its real
hard for me to top my peppers too but holy smokes it sure pays off eh? I
noticed I cringed when I heard the snapping of the cut. I think the beats
are going to just jump up! enjoyed the video bro 🙂

I’ve pruned a billion pepper plants and every time I do this I feel bad for
the plant even though I know it’s going to turn out good.

Hi Stephen. I look forward to seeing how the “drastically” pruned peppers
do. This is something Praxxus does? The peppers that I’m overwintering are
starting to fade a bit. I’m even thinking of possibly using some fertilizer
on them (gasp!).

I used to ventilate the chlorine from my water added to aquarium but never
really thought about it for my plants. This would definitely help delicate
seedlings! I picked this up a couple of weeks ago from you actually. Thanks!
That pepper is huge! I mean WAS huge! Ours are about the same size now! I
think he’ll be fine though. Only ever removed flower/first peppers here to
help the plant.

Excellent vid mate 🙂 My only concern was potential over watering after a
severe pruning like that..a light prune gives more smaller fruit and is
safe…

I’m going to be very interested to see how the pruned peppers do along side
of the pruned pepper. Also, very good tip on the 2-2-2 fertilizer, I will
keep this in mind as I think it may work very nicely this spring for me.
Thank You!

They look great! I will definitely be following to see how they do. I would
like to start some things indoors but not sure how to protect them from our
4 cats!

Stephen how do you deal with calcium issues that peppers often suffer from
?

in zone 3a any good places to get nursery pots locally in this area?

Hi Stephen, I pruned half of my peppers last week. I have several more that
I should do soon because they are putting out a lot of flower buds. The 4
varieties of sweet peppers that I planted a couple weeks ago are doing
great.

Hi Stephen!
I just found your channel and loving the tips. I had no idea peppers had to
be pruned. Yes, I have been living under a rock and to top it off I am a
rookie 🙂
Thanks so much for the tips, off to pruning before is too late
(Zooommm!!)
