The following methods can be used to disinfect pepper seeds:
         First, put the seeds into 50-55°C hot water, soak them at a constant temperature for 15-20 minutes, and stir continuously. When the water temperature drops, add hot water to keep the water temperature between 50-55°C. After 20 minutes, add cold water to lower it to 20-30°C. Another method is to soak them in a 10% trisodium phosphate solution for 20 minutes, then rinse them clean with water. After the seeds are disinfected, put them into water at about 25°C. Then soak them at room temperature for about 12 hours, and then carry out seed soaking and germination.
