When the peppers in your garden are ripe, it's time to think about seeds for the next harvest. How not to make a mistake and what to pay attention to?
Details
First, you need to take the peppers from the best bushes. To avoid accidentally picking them in advance for food, make a mark on the bush, for example, tie a bright ribbon. Then the peppers will definitely go to their intended destination.
Secondly, the fruits should be large, undamaged, and fully ripe. It is best for peppers to ripen on the bush, but if that is not possible, you can pick them and lay them out in the sun to "ripen."
Thirdly, you can only choose seeds when the fruits ripen and become soft.
By the way, to speed up this process, you can carefully cut off the fruit itself, leaving the stalk and the calyx with the seeds.
Pepper seeds should be poured into a plate and left to dry for 10-14 days. After that, place them in paper envelopes, sign them, and store them in a cool, dry place.
If you follow these simple recommendations, you will have healthy, tested seeds in the spring, and accordingly, a good harvest!
