Chili plants are not annual trees, usually after a lot of care, the chili tree will no longer produce good fruit after more than 3 harvests and after that the number of chilies harvested will continue to decrease and the quality will also decrease. And this also applies to my chili plants, although initially these plants were fine, but productive age cannot be lied to and my chili trees are starting to die. Therefore, I want to plant chilies again and if yesterday the chilies I planted were small chilies that tasted very spicy, now I will plant red chilies that are not too spicy.
To plant this red chili I did not plant it from chili seeds but I bought ready-made chili seeds and the seeds were more than a week old and the place I was going to was a chili plant wholesaler and other agricultural plants. Okay and after I bought this chili seed I took a break because it was already noon and it happened to be a holiday, in the afternoon I continued planting this chili seed.
The first step is I put the soil into the polybag then I arrange it, then I make a hole in the middle of the polybag that has been given the soil then I take the chili seeds that I bought earlier then slowly and carefully I take the chili seeds and I split the plastic that wraps the seeds and pay attention not to let the soil attached to the seeds break because the chili seeds will be stressed and the possibility of survival is also small. After the seeds come out of the plastic I put them in the polybag and of course I cover them again with soil. And so on until the chili seeds I bought run out. After planting, don't forget to water them, friends.
And after I saw the development of my chili seedlings after 2 weeks I began to realize that my chili plants were not as I expected. Even though the growth was quite fast. Among the 20 chili plants that I planted, there were already some chili plants that had started to bear fruit, but some chili plants had slow growth. And there were also some chili plants that were wilting. And I didn't understand what caused this because I had watered them every day and if it rained I only rinsed the leaves with a little water. Then I also gave special plant vitamins for chili plants to prevent pests, I chose pesticides from onion skin soaking water.
I have done everything but every day there are chili plants that wilt. I tried to find some references from the internet and friends who have planted chilies and I have done everything but the results are still the same and from this incident I tried to analyze whether it is possible that the high rainfall every day makes my chili plants wilt and get this kind of disease. Have you ever experienced the same thing as me and what did you do to treat my chili plants or prevent other plants from getting the same disease. I am a little sad about this and can you provide information that can comfort me for my chili plants that are attacked by this disease? express your opinion in the comments column and greetings from me tomidiwirja, Indonesia
