How to grow chili peppers at home
Do you know about these? Here are some tips and knowledge about growing chili peppers and potted chili pepper planting at home. If there are any mistakes, please feel free to correct them!
More and more people enjoy growing flowers, but many gardening enthusiasts not only take care of flowers and plants but also plant some vegetable potted plants every summer and autumn.
Today, I'd like to share with you how a gardening enthusiast grows chili peppers at home, not in flower pots, but directly in woven bags, then placing them in their own courtyard. Of course, some people also use waste oil drums as pots to grow chili peppers, which allows for mass planting and harvesting a large amount at once.
I. Growing chili peppers in woven bags
1. As shown in the picture, the gardening enthusiast grows chili peppers in woven bags, usually sowing in spring, with the plants beginning to bloom and produce chili peppers in summer. By autumn, a large number of chili peppers turn red, creating a spectacular sight, and one can harvest 30 to 40 pounds at a time.
2. First, in spring, it is necessary to prepare chili pepper seedlings, with moist mixed soil, sowing the chili pepper seeds in the soil, which can take root and sprout in about 10 days. When the chili pepper seedlings grow to 10 centimeters tall, they can be transplanted.
3. As shown in the picture, prepare some woven bags because woven bags are naturally breathable and permeable. Fill the bags with moist mixed soil, plant the seedlings, and then place them in a well-lit courtyard or balcony for maintenance.

4. When the surface soil becomes dry, water the woven bags thoroughly, and every two months, sprinkle some organic fertilizer on the soil surface. The chili peppers can grow rapidly, bloom in large numbers in summer, and soon bear fruit.
With this method of cultivation, one can grow a large number of chili pepper seedlings at home, and by summer and autumn, they can harvest their own-grown chili peppers.
II. Growing chili peppers in waste oil drums
1. Of course, if you have waste oil drums at home, you can cut them open as shown in the picture, then drill 2 to 3 drainage holes in the bottom, and fill them with moist mixed soil.
