Hi steemian steemit community indonesia, today i will show you the technique of chili cultivation manually and in a simple way.
Chilli is one type of horticultural crops that are widely consumed by the community as an appetite enhancer. What happens if we cook without using chili, of course there is less and will be slightly tasteless.
In this discussion I will explain how to grow chilies by using polybags, because this cultivation system is one of the easiest techniques and the success rate is high.
The thing that needs to be done is watering and enough to give fertilizer. Well, for more details about the explanation I will perform at the stage of the process.
This is how to sow chili seeds in polybags;
- The first way to do is to soak the seeds for about 20 minutes using warm water.
- Notice the seeds that float during the soaking process of the seed. The floating seeds should be discarded, because the growth will not be maximal and will not produce good chili. For seeds that remain submerged, wrap them in a damp cloth and leave them for a day and a night longer.
- Then you have to prepare the medium for sowing at the same time with soaking the seeds.
- The medium is a loose soil mixed with manure, with a ratio of one to one. Put the mixed seedling medium into a small plastic with a diameter of about 3 - 5 cm and height 6 cm. Do not forget to give enough holes for air circulation, and flush with a root stimulant solution. This seeding media should be located in a sheltered area to protect from direct sun exposure, rainfall and wind gusts.
- Move the seeds if you have 3-5 pieces of perfect leaves.

How to plant chili pepper in polybags that should not be missed is the treatment. The treatment is in the form of watering, given the stimulant grows after 5-7 days, discard the old and almost rotten leaves, pull out the disturbing wild plants and spray pesticides to kill pests and diseases. This treatment continues until chili is cooked and ready to be harvested.
