hygienist chilies from our own garden. My mom plants several chili-plants in my house
backyard. She thinks that planting chilies can save some money because the price of
chilies in the market is so high.
Materials
Before we plant chilies, we need to prepare several things such as chili seeds, small spade,
compost, and vessels. After all tools and materials have been prepared, then we begin to
plant some chilies.
Steps
First, get a handful of chili seeds. Make sure you have already dried it under the sunlight.
Second, make small hole on the soil by using the small spade and put the seeds on it then
close with soil. Make sure to put it on the open area. Next, wait for several day until it
come out the sprout. Finally, take the sprout off the soil and put it on the vessel which full
of soil and compost. The sprout will grow bigger and yield us some fresh chilies. Make
sure to watering the plant regularly.
