This year we plan on attempting to breed our own varieties of chili / peppers.
After selecting x2 healthy plants from x2 individual cultivar (plant #A and plant #B), we place both plants in isolation, and monitor patterns of growth.
At the stage when plant #A and plant #B are both producing flowers, we start introducing the pollen from plant #A onto the flowers of plant #B.
Plant #A (Hungarian Black)
Plant #B (Jalapeno)
The seed produced by the fruits from plant #B will contain some of the genetics from plant #A and some from plant #B.
Next season the collected seed will be sown out and then in-bred amongst themselves to form a new stabilized variety called... 'Black Jalapeno!'
