Pepper planting methods can start from the choice of varieties, not to be mixed, seed soaking; planting techniques can start from the rules of fertilization, watering rules.

A, planting methods

1, variety selection: chili pepper can be planted in the spring and fall, the spring temperature difference, high temperature will affect the flowering and fruiting of the plant, generally planting early varieties, fall can be planted in late varieties.

2, not mixed: pepper can not even need to plant, and can not use the planted eggplant, tomatoes and potatoes planted in the soil, it needs to be planted in the terrain of high, well-drained places. A deep plowing in winter can eliminate the soil germs and insect eggs, followed by leveling and applying a sufficient amount of basal fertilizer.

3, seed soaking: because the original germination rate of pepper seeds is high, so generally do not need to germinate. In order to accelerate the germination, you can soak the seeds in water, you can also use agents to soak the seeds, to disinfect and sterilize the effect. Sow the seeds into the soil, covered with 2 centimeters of fine soil, watered and covered with mulch, after the emergence of seedlings must be removed from the mulch.

Two, management techniques

1, fertilization rules: pepper belongs to the fertilizer, afraid of drought, afraid of flooding crops, fertilization rules for the "two ends of the less, more in the middle". Because the growth cycle of pepper is long, so the base fertilizer to be sufficient, late moderate amount of fertilizer. Base fertilizer is generally rotting organic fertilizer, per mu into the organic fertilizer 4000-5000 kg or so, with the application of phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer about 70 kg.

2, watering rules: pepper seedlings need less fertilizer, flowering and fruiting period most. Pepper watering can not be big water irrigation, to small water watering, to the soil see dry and wet as a standard, drought and then watering.

Planting notes

The greenhouse cultivation of chili peppers is generally sown in mid-October, the following year, January to mid-February fixation, the beginning of harvest in early April. Early spring cultivation can choose Su Pepper 5, Su Pepper 11, Luo Pepper 98A, Red Inda, St. Ark and so on. The general mu yield is about 4000 kg, with high economic benefits.

Weed the ground often, appropriate application of some phosphorus fertilizer, potash and farmyard manure, pepper is more drought-resistant, can not water too much, can be based on the moisture of the ground for watering, rainy season pay attention to clear the ditch flooding.

Chili peppers generally grow to 15-20 centimeters when they are ripe, can be picked. Be careful not to rip the pole off when picking, and if you want to save it for seed, you can let that part of the chili grow for a while longer and the seed will be fuller.
