Abstract
Seed availability is very important in supporting the sustainability of agriculture in a country and maintaining the existence of a variety. Therefore, seeds of OP chili varieties are produced by the Indonesian Vegetables Research Institute through the seed certification process. Identification of the potential and character of seed production of each chili variety needs to be known for effective seed production planning. Seed production of seven varieties was carried out in a screen house in two locations (Lembang-West Java and Brastagi-North Sumatera). Observations were conducted at every stage of production from tillage to seed quality testing, including the length of harvest time, number and weight of fruits, seed weight, seed yield, and seed quality. The number of fruits, weight of fruits, and seeds produced differed between chili varieties. Tanjung-2 chili is the earliest variety to start harvesting (12 weeks after planting) compared to other varieties. Ciko has the shortest harvest period (9 weeks). Lembang 1 has the highest seed potential compared to others (4.86-6.65%).
