Chili pepper normally tends to reach to a mature height of 45.72 cm [imperial: 1.49 feet] so ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant.

Remember to water moderately.

Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 7.0 and 8.5 as Chili pepper likes to be in neutral to alkaline soil.

Common Chili pepper problems include Nematodes, White Fly, Aphids, Tobacco Mosaic Virus, and Bacterial Leaf Rot, so keep a close eye out for any developing symptoms.
