Chili sowing
Growing chili peppers
December 29, 2009
Every year I use the scottex paper method for the chili sowing.
This method can be used also for bell peppers, tomatoes, aubergines.
Take an ice-cream box, clean and disinfect it.
Draw sectors on a scottex paper towel, and put it inside the box.
It's better to follow a plan: seeds are very similar and can be confused.
This is my schema.
Pour some water on the paper towel, and put each seed in its place.
Cover and put in a warm place.
When a seed sprouts, plant it in a pot or plastic glass, and don't forget to label it.
This year I'm growing many new plants, seeds seems very vital and I have planted almost 30 sprouted seeds.
One of the first chilies: Frida Black. I must admit that I choose this pepper for the name, that remember me a Peanuts character.
More details: Frida Black becomes a gorgeous ornamental chili plant.
