Potted peppers usually have small plants, green leaves, and the peppers are colorful. Many people grow these peppers not to eat them, but to grow them on the balcony for viewing, which is also quite beautiful. How to grow peppers in pots1. Planting soil: The planting soil for potted peppers can be prepared by mixing humus soil, peat soil and garden soil in a ratio of 1:3:0.5 to ensure that the soil is loose, fertile, breathable and well-drained. 2. Planting: Soak the pepper seeds in warm water for about 20 minutes, while keeping the soil moist. Sow the processed seeds in the soil, placing 2-3 seeds in each hole on average, and cover with a thin layer of soil. 3. Transplanting and planting: When the pepper seedlings grow to about 10 cm in height, you can start transplanting them.
