Cayenne is one type of horticultural crops widely consumed by the wider community as a spicy flavorings. Cayenne pepper is one type of chili that is very popular for the cultivation. Chili or "Capsicum frutescens" is very suitable for planting in the tropics is around the equator. In Indonesia itself many kinds of chilli cultivation which until now became the needs of the wider community.
The First Step Of Planting Cayenne Pepper
- Make chili seeds
- Sowing chili seeds
- Planting chili seedlings
- Treating chili plants
That's the main step how to plant cayenne pepper in the pot / polybag or planted directly in the yard.
How To Make Chili Seeds
Actually there is a practical way in preparing chili seeds, ie buy at a trusted farm shop. But because our goal is to grow cayenne pepper for hobby and household consumption alone / small scale then we will learn how to make chili seeds themselves.
Here are some things to watch out for to get good and good chili seeds.
- Choose a ripe and red chili pepper. Make sure the fruit is good and no color abnormalities / disease.
- Once you have red chili to be made seed, cut it into three parts. Take the chilli part of the middle and then separate the seeds from the skin / chili meat.
- In this step you already have a prospective chili seed. Next prepare a place / container, it can be basin, glass, or bucket. Fill it with lukewarm water.
- Next step prepare one clove of onion, then puree by using muntu. Combine the shallot has been smooth into warm water in the container earlier.
- After that enter the seeds of chili that earlier you've got. Soak chili seeds overnight only.
- In the morning you will find dried chili and sinking seeds. Separate and grab the chilli seeds that sink. The floating please just throw away.
- Drain briefly chili seeds that you get earlier, while preparing the media to seed the seeds.
- Dry the cayenne seeds that have been selected earlier but not directly under the hot sun. After the cayenne seeds are completely dry then we now have the chili seeds ready for sowing.
How To Sow Chili Seedlings
The next step after we managed to make the chilli seed itself is menyemainya. Why not just planted directly in the ground / pot? it's simple and not complicated. I used to be so, immediately planted chili seeds in the soil / pot. But it did not all grow well. So, one of the goals of planting chilli seeds in this nursery is to select good seeds and ignore the defective or diseased chili seeds. In addition, we can ensure the chili seed is strong enough to be moved to a larger planting medium.
In sowing chili seeds there are using the following techniques:
- Sprinkle the cayenne seeds you have into the planting medium (can be in polybag or into the pot), then cover with a thin ground only.
- Put the chili paste pot in a place protected from direct sun and rain
- Flush every afternoon using plain water. Do not be torn down later on all the cabenya seeds. Use sprays or wipe them carefully.
- Usually after 3-5 days chili seeds have shown signs of growing. And on the 7th day seeds of cayenne pepper already seen standing.
Done on this step, now the chilli seedlings are ready to be planted.
