Did He Say Seed-cret?? Like Secret ?

Great video, just please buy a Lapel Mic and you will get more like, I promise.

Found it.

Paprika is made from Capsicum Pepper.. 10-15 chili or red bell pepper plants stringing them and hanging them dry or use a dehydrator.. Must be totally dry. Dispose of stems, save seeds for next year, Break pepper into small pieces. Grind pepper into a powder form (can use blender), stored in an air-tight jar.

What kind of pepper for make some paprika Powder?

I tried this with a really ripe jalapeño and within 24 hours my seeds turned very brown is that normal?could they still germinate or should I just trash them

Do I keep the seeds in a cool place or humid

you are amazing!!! thanks

Hi. Thank you for this information. I have a question though. Can I put my seeds into an envelope like they have in the stores and then put that envelope into a mason jar in the fridge for extra preservation?? My seeds have been sitting in a dish in the counter for days. Do you think they are still good? Thanks again.

And WEAR GLOVES if you save hot pepper seeds!

can I store the seeds in the fridge?

nicely explained..thank u

Wow this was good, I didn't know that about banana peppers or general, I tried to save some chocolate bell peppers and they didn't germinate so I guess I didn't let them get ripe! Thanks a bunch!

How can you make a pepper go ripe

What a talented veg gardener this young man is.. I've learned so much from all his videos.. It's given me confidence and positive results, and I enjoy passing the knowledge on to my friends who garden..

When saving the seeds, in an airtight container or bag, should you put them in the refrigerator for the winter until you're ready to plant them in the spring. Thanks from SE Michigan.

Love how you make vids that seem super easy yet creative - two thumbs up! Hope you to a vid on Thai Peppers !

Thanks Luke...I have peppers that's still on the bush turning red...can I just leave them there and save those seeds or do I have to pick them. I'm doing a garden take down and clean up for fall so I'll be pulling the bush down. Thanks again garden friend!

This seems like a bad idea to me. You are touching the peppers and seeds with your hands. If that was a hotter pepper you could burn your skin and later touch your eyes and then be in serious pain.
I cut the meat from the pepper leaving only the stem and seeds. Then let it dry. After it's dry you can pop them off with a knife. No touching, no burning eyes.

Pepper seeds are super easy to save and I'm so thankful to have them!! We saved a few varieties 4 years ago and the seeds still have 100% germination rate. Even still, I saved more this year along with a few new varieties. SO nice to have on hand ... it's a blessing to not have to buy them any more!!
