Is it ok to have two chilli plants in one pot?

March 15, 2018A.That depends on the size of the pot and the ultimate size of the plants. I grow 2-3 serrano chilis in a 9 inch deep, 12" wide container. And I tuck a cilantro or 2 in there until the chilis get bigger.

2111Q.Is there a type of chilli which does not have seeds?
My friend gave me some chilli seeds to grow a while ago. However, the chilli that I got now is completely no seeds. Could I please be explained how it could happen?

Certified ExpertA.Yes, This is an example of parthenocarpy. Peppers are notorious for this, since they are self fertile. Sometimes you will have a pepper flower that did not get pollinated at all. The pepper will still swell, and may or may not get as big, but will lack seeds since it was not pollinated.
Not all of your fruit will exhibit this trait, and is usually a sign of stress, but not always.

Certified ExpertA.We do not recommend places to purchase, but you can try places such as Amazon, Etsy, or Ebay. They may have what you are looking for.
Alternatively, your local nurseries may carry what you need.

T0C 0V0Q.how to grow from the pepper
If I buy red hot chili peppers,and want to grow them, do I plant the whole pepper, or open them up and plant the white seed inside?
- Answered by

Certified ExpertA.It will be best to take the seeds out, and let them dry out. After this, you can plant one per container, or one or two every 3 or 4 feet or so. Once they germinate, you can snip the weaker one in each place so that there is only one plant per spot.
