From the manuring till the flowering and fruiting.
And... u later pluck the fruits and prepare a pickle!!
Step 1: REQUIREMENTS
1, empty bucket
Step 2: Preparing Manure
Collect all biodegradable kitchen waste like vegetable leftovers, fruits,etc.
Note :Do not use garlic and onion.
Put all the waste into a bucket and cover it with soil .
This avoids bad odor and flies.
The soil helps in decomposing the waste.
Do this for about a month or till the bucket is full , by daily adding waste and soil.
Cover the manure with a lid.
After the bucket is full..
Now mix the contents of the bucket well, by spreading the soil on a newspaper or a plastic .
Keep the mixture open on the newspaper for about a day.
Your manure is ready.
Step 3: Planting
Take a pot half filled with soil.
Now add the manure to it and mix it well.
Now place any plant you like to grow into the soil.
Basil, mint, chilly,seasonal flower,etc.
I have used basil and Trinidad Moruga Scorpion( indian name bhoot jhalukia) the hottest chilly.
Keep adding water to pot.
Place it in your balcony under the sun and enjoy nature in fall.

The pictures show the plant growing.
As u can see we have achieved fruiting stage of the chilly.
Now lets use it.
