 Steps for Sowing:

1. Prepare the Planting Medium

Mix soil, compost, and burnt husks until evenly blended.

Put the planting medium into the seedling tray or prepared container.

2. Soak the Seeds

Soak the chili seeds in warm water (±50°C) for 3-6 hours to speed up germination.

If using a growth stimulant, soak the seeds according to the product instructions.

3. Plant the Seeds

Make small holes in the planting medium (about ±0.5 cm deep).

Place one seed in each hole, then cover lightly with the planting medium.

4. Watering

Water the planting medium using a sprayer or small watering tool with just enough water (avoid waterlogging).

5. Care for the Seedlings

Place the seedlings in a shaded area that still gets indirect light.

Cover the seedlings with transparent plastic if the weather is too hot or during heavy rain.

Water regularly (in the morning or evening) to maintain moisture.

6. Transplanting to the Field

Once the seedlings have 3-5 leaves (around 3-4 weeks), they are ready to be transplanted into a larger pot or field.
