How and when to harvest Chilli pepper in Terrace Gardens

Updated: Feb 14

After two months (60-70 days) your chillies should be ready to be picked


After the chilies start giving fruit, use a spray to water them to avoid overwatering.


Chillies first discolor at the top of the crown. If the chilli starts to change color here, it will be red, orange or yellow after a few days, depending on the variety.


If the chilli has changed color, we should wait for 5 days before picking.


Harvest chillies cut them off the plant with scissors or knife.


Chillies can be harvested when they are green or red


In the last days their aroma intensifies and a certain sweetness is added


You can harvest the plants, remove the branches and hang them upside down so the fruit continues to mature
