Pepper loves nutritious soil. But not every garden can boast of this. If the land is poor, you can’t do without top dressing otherwise the growth will slow down, and there will be few fruits.
The first top dressing after landing
A couple of weeks after planting seedlings in open ground, plants need support. To do this, prepare a solution. 2 tablespoons of urea and superphosphate are added to a bucket of water. Water under the root in a liter for each bush. This will give peppers nitrogen and phosphorus necessary for active increase in green mass and strong roots.
When growth slowed down
If it seems that the peppers have stopped in development, it is worth feeding them with ash. The solution is made simply. Two glasses of ash per 10 liters of water. The bushes are watered with this solution. The ash saturates the earth with potassium and important trace elements, stimulating growth and strengthening the plant from the inside.
Support at the time of ovaries
As soon as the ovaries begin to form, pepper especially needs a balanced diet. The following composition is suitable. 1 grams of ammonium nitrate, 2 grams of superphosphate and the same amount of potassium sulfate are diluted into a bucket of water. With this solution, the bushes are sprayed along the liter to the plant.
Such a mixture provides everything that is needed for the normal formation of fruits. Nitrogen is necessary for growth, phosphorus is important for the development of ovaries, and potassium gives sweetness and juiciness to the fruits.
Feed the pepper on time. He will generously thank you with large and juicy fruits.
