Description

Growing Guide for Chili Peppers:

Location:

Plant your chili pepper seedlings in a sunny spot that receives at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day.

Soil:

Choose well-draining, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. Work in organic matter like compost to enrich the soil.

Planting:

  1. Space your chili pepper seedlings 45-60 cm apart in rows that are 60-90 cm apart.
  2. Plant the seedlings at the same depth they were in their containers, ensuring the crown is level with the soil surface.

Care:

  • Water your chili pepper plants consistently, keeping the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
  • Mulch around the chili pepper plants to retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds.
  • Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer when the plants start flowering and fruiting.
  • Watch for common chili pepper pests like aphids and pepper weevils, and use appropriate pest control methods if necessary.

Harvest:

You can start harvesting chili peppers when they reach the desired size and color. Use scissors or a sharp knife to cut the peppers from the plant.
