Pepper planting scheme

Pepper is a crop that requires special attention and care. Against the backdrop of the need for warmth and good lighting, pepper needs abundant and regular watering. During the growth period of vegetable peppers, it is important to fertilize the plant with liquid organic fertilizers.

To obtain a good harvest, the chosen pepper planting scheme is of great importance. Many vegetable growers, trying to solve the problem of a lack of planting space, choose a scheme with a row spacing of 20-50 cm and a distance between plants in a row of 10 cm. As a result, it was noticed that peppers are slightly delayed in ripening the crop, but the fruits are larger in size. If pepper seedlings are planted more densely, then to obtain a normal harvest, it is recommended to use fertilizing solutions. With this scheme, you should take into account the fact that caring for grown pepper bushes will be much more difficult.

There is also a pepper planting scheme in which three young sprouts are planted in one large hole, previously flavored with ash. This scheme is most suitable for regions with a hot climate and little precipitation, since the foliage of the plant creates shade and helps protect it from extreme heat. It is also recommended to lightly tap the pepper bushes with a stick during flowering, which is necessary for their better pollination.

As a rule, for each variety of sweet pepper there are recommendations from breeders, which are indicated on the package with seeds.If you strictly follow all the instructions and choose the varieties most adapted to your climate, you will soon enjoy a juicy and aromatic harvest of pepper.
