Introduction

Chili pepper is a type of chili that is often grown in home gardens. One of the easiest ways to grow it is by directly planting the seeds into polybags without going through the seeding stage. This method is practical and saves time.

Tools and Materials

• Chili pepper seeds (can be from dried chilies)
•  Polybags (size 30x30 cm or larger)
• Fertile soil
• Compost or manure
• Watering can
• Small hoe or hand trowel
• Location with sunlight

Planting Steps

a. Preparing the Planting Medium

Mix fertile soil, compost (or manure), and sand with a ratio of 2:1:1. Fill the polybags with this mixture, leaving about 5 cm from the top.

b. Planting the Seeds

Make 2-3 small holes (1-2 cm deep) in the center of each polybag. Put 2-3 seeds in each hole and cover them lightly with soil.

c. Watering

Water the soil gently until it's moist. Continue watering 1-2 times a day depending on the weather, to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

d. Thinning Plants

After 1-2 weeks, when the seeds start to grow and have at least 2 true leaves, select one healthy plant in each polybag and remove the others.

e. Plant Care

Place the polybags in a location that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Fertilize with organic or NPK fertilizer every 2-3 weeks. Remove weeds and check for pests regularly.

f. Harvesting

Chilies can usually be harvested after 75-90 days. Pick the ripe red chilies periodically to encourage the plant to continue producing fruit.

Conclusion

Growing chili peppers directly from seeds into polybags is a simple and effective method. With proper care, this method produces healthy chili plants suitable for household needs.
