Thank you, Hivegarden friends, first of all for the support you give to my posts, and I hope this new sweet pepper planting project will yield an excellent harvest in the coming months. Of course, I've only started with four plants, but in the next few weeks, I'll plant a few more that I already have ready, as well as others that I first need to transfer to plastic cups before planting them in their final location. In total, I hope to have around 20, which would make me very, very happy. I'll share the whole process with you here in the #hivegarden community, which I love so much.

Before planting, I had to try to level the ground a bit since it's too steep, which wouldn't allow me to achieve what I want. I did this with a chicory plant; it was almost two meters long, and I tried to leave a 50-centimeter separation between plants so they would each have enough space to grow properly. After that, it was just a matter of digging the holes, finding the plants, and planting them properly.

Once I had them, I placed each one where I thought its size would best suit each plant.

Then it was just a matter of placing them in each hole and covering them with soil, not too much so as not to completely cover them, and always trying to be as even as possible so that when watering, the water wouldn't be lost and would stay there to nourish the different sweet pepper plants. I'm planning to get some fertilizer to help them even more and try to bring forward the harvest time.

After watering the plants, I took some pictures, especially of the soil, so you can see that even though I cleared it a bit, there are still a lot of stones, but that doesn't stop me from trying to make them thrive with my farming efforts.
