Information related to the performance of chili plants and seeds is important for seed industry players to know. Therefore, observations were made regarding the performance and quality of Open Pollinated chili varieties seeds from Indonesian Vegetables Research Institute which has an excellent opportunity to be licensed by private seed producers in Indonesia. Seeds of seven OP chili varieties produced in 2021 were observed for seed performance and quality. Data were analyzed descriptively.

Physical purity, moisture content and seed germination ranged from 100%, 3.8-7.0% and 76-98%, respectively. Ciko variety has the largest seed size and 1000-seed weight compared to other varieties. While Lembang 1 variety has the smallest seed size and 1000-seed weight.
