Hi this is Peter Stanley, welcome to my channel.
tonight I'm going to show how
I've been cloning
peppers using the AeroGarden
and also the Kratky method works for this too
but I'm going to demonstrate with the AeroGarden
so what I need is
grow sponge, you can use the AeroGarden
sponge, I use these Park Seed biodome sponges
they're just a lot cheaper and they seem to work better
snips for cutting the plant
you could also use a sharp razor blade
That's what a lot of people use.
These are pretty sharp.
got them at a grow store for two or three dollars
that's what the package looks like
and some regular scissors
for cutting the sponge
and this is the kind of basket that comes with the AeroGarden seed pod kits
you can also buy these separately
you can get a back of 50 for 15.00 give or take.
so the first thing I'm going to do is prepare my sponge
and do that by cutting it
half way and lengthwise
so there's a hole
in the very top
it doesn't go all the way through but kind of gives you a starting point to cut
also, before I start I want to say that I sanitized both of these with
vinegar and peroxide, and rinsed them off and dried them
so I don't spread anything to my plant
so all do is stick this in the center hole
and just cut it
so it spreads apart
so what I want to do is
when I get my cutting the way I want I'm just going to
spread this
lay it down in here
fold it back around
and stick it in here
well that's ready, I'm going to go ahead and
get my cutting
this is the plant that I'm cloning. It's a
it's called an Aji Painapple
and this is the f2
it's a cross created by D3 from thehotpepper.com
I'll put a link to his community crossing project in the description.
but it's a cross between an Aji Pineapple
and a Butch T Yellow Scorpion
It's growing really really fast
you can see the growth
characteristic is very similar to aji peppers
but also the leaves are more chinense looking
The fruits from the f1 were amazing.
I'm hoping the f2 is just as good.
What I look for is a little side shoot.
that's
kind of a younger, tender side shoot
that's not gotten all woody yet
and
probably this one back here
I think are also
generally called suckers. People pick them off
so I want to go with that guy
and I'm going to cut it at the
bottom, but I'm going to trim it again. I'll show you what I do with it.
Okay so I need to trim some of this foliage off.
these
You don't want a whole lot leaves, and you definitely
want any buds. If you see any buds pick them off.
and these bigger leaves I always cut them in half.
That's probably good, I could probably cut more.
and I want to
what I do is find a node
and I cut at a 45 degree angle
just below it
so I'll cut it right there
alright
and I'll go ahead and
spread this apart
just kind of fold that around like that
and now I just
drop it in the AeroGarden
so I'm going to
use this spot here
drop it in and let it go
and I'll check it every
probably it takes a few weeks to
root but
I'll start checking it in a few weeks
I've got three in here
that I've cloned. This one's actually grown quite a bit
this one, actually all of them have
see the roots on that
that was from a cutting
Once you see roots pop out then you know it worked.
some on that guy
see those
this one I could go ahead and transplant
You could also do this using the Kratky method.
Basically it's a non-circulating hydroponics
and
this particular one wasn't
from a cutting, it was a transplant
this is a White Devil's Tail
growing in here
Basically what you do is
if you're using the AeroGarden baskets they fit in these little
Ocean Spray bottles and anything that has a one and a half inch opening.
just like I put in the AeroGarden just drop it
in here with enough solution
that can wick up into the sponge
and just let it go. It's just a little longer
with the Kratky method but it works too
anyway
I hope you liked that
