Hi Mary,
The variety and market demand depends with consumer that's is the person you intend to sell to. I would advise you to do a market research in your locality to identify the variety in demand. However there several chillies varieties this includes Bullets , bird eye chilly
Raising seedlings
The seeds are first sowed in the nursery where nursery management practices takes place for about 3-4 weeks and the seedlings are ready for transplanting.
Transplanting
prepare the seedbed, add well decomposed manure and DAP depending with your soil test analysis.
plant at a spacing of 40 by 60 cm depending with the variety.
