Due to heavy rains in the country, vegetable crops have suffered a lot, due to which the prices of vegetables have also increased a lot. It has become difficult for a common man to buy such expensive vegetables. Therefore, the only way to avoid inflation is to grow some vegetables at home.

Due to heavy rains in the country, the capsicum crop has also been badly affected. There is a huge demand for capsicum and it is difficult to buy such expensive capsicum from the market. In such a situation, you can also plant capsicum on the balcony or terrace of your house.

How to grow capsicum on the roof of your house

1. First of all, buy good quality capsicum seeds from a nursery. You can grow capsicum in a pot or even in a grow bag.

2. Sandy-loam soil with good drainage should be used to grow capsicum. Add organic manure to it and mix everything and keep it in the sun for some time, so that the moisture and insects present in the soil go away.

3. Before planting the seeds in the pot, soak them in lukewarm water for 24 hours. After that, bury the seeds in the soil at a depth of 3 to 4 inches. After planting the seeds, add cow dung manure on top and then add one to two mugs of water. Do not keep the pot in bright sunlight until the seeds germinate. As long as the plant is small, water it only once a day because pouring excess water can spoil the seeds.
