My gardening hobby kicked in last year in full steam. And after seeing how much joy they bring me I decided to try vegetable gardening this time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where I grow my chili<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I just have a small balcony, so I have to maximize the usage of space for my garden and then some to actually walk and enjoy that garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Balcony vegetable beds are quite handy for growing vegetables in indoor gardens. I got two of these beds for a combination of vegetables. I initially planted coriander, the chili, the strawberries and some chive together in a biggish bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My big balcony bed is nothing but a oversized pot. So putting a lot of vegetables, each with different growth rate in different seasons was not a very good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The strawberries and the coriander initially dominated the growth of the chili because of the same pot. Once I realized the chili was not growing well, I transferred it into its own pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No sooner had the chili gotten its own pot, that it started to grow super fast.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
August 2019, the plant has grown huge but no chili so far. Plenty of flowers though.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For my garden, I add organic fertilizers occasionally. My balcony gets plenty of sun and with lots of sun and my love, the chili has grown up into a big plant now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far there are no chili growing on it. However, it has plenty of flowers and warm September is just starting. Soon I can also eat spicy green chillies.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you like this post, do read my experiences as an amateur gardener in my other posts: How it all started<\/a> and the first time I grew strawberries<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want me to post more detailed information about planting, potting and other experiences, do let me know. I try to keep my posts simple as of yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
