For those of you who like to culinary, every cook that needs spices, must be associated with this one plant.

The red chili is a member of the genus capsicum. The fruit can be classified as vegetables and spices.
Spicy chili is very popular in Southeast Asia as a flavor booster.
Everyone likes to eat using chillies, both fresh and processed into chili sauce.

Red chili is one type of vegetables that contain various compounds that are useful for human health, chili contains antioxidants that serve to keep the body from free radical attack. This fruit also contains Lasparaginase and Capsaicin which act as an anticancer agent.

Chili is one of the vegetable commodities that are cultivated by many farmers because they have a high selling price In addition, vitamin C content is high enough in chili to meet everyday daily needs, but should be consumed sufficiently to avoid stomach pain.

Due to the high demand of the market, many farmers are now trying to cultivate pepper plants. Despite the fluctuating price, planting chili can be done in a simple way. During the rainy season, this plant does not need watering, just rely on rain water only.

To grow red peppers,
before planting we must determine what type of chili to be planted, whether cayenne pepper, big red pepper, red chili or any other type of chili.

After we determine the type, choose fresh chili and peel the chili to take the seeds and drying in the sun.

After that, do the seeding of dried seeds. whether sowing in polybag or in the bed, because the two ways are almost the same, but most farmers use the media beds as a technique to sow the seeds of chili.

When the beds are ready, sprinkle the chilli seeds into the bed that we have loose soil. After that, cover the top with a dry weed, which is supported using wood to adjust the distance between the ground and the chilli seeds.
During the process of seeding, the condition of the soil should be maintained by watering it daily on top of the lid, so that water does not fall directly to the soil that will cause the seed to drift.

After that wait until the seeds grow into small plants, if already have leaves at least four strands, chitosan seeds move to planting land.

Then we clear the land that will be used to plant chili from weeds or weeds.
Then ground the soil and fertilize the cage.
After transplanting seedlings for planting, apply cover over chilli plant using straw or other cover, this is to keep moisture as well as to avoid drought on planting land.

Then give fertilizer so fertile, mix manure or urea to taste.

After that do watering the pepper plants every day if the conditions are not raining and do weeding or cleaning weeds that grow around the pepper plants.

With patience, as time passes, we are finally ready to harvest.
Panense is done when the chili is not completely red and there is still a green line.
Picking chili fruit
should be done in the morning, after the dew dries so that the pepper looks fresh.

Here's what I can tell about the steps we should do to grow chili, hopefully useful.
That is all and thank you
