How to grow chili peppers for high yield

1. Soil requirements

It is suitable to choose a plot with fertile soil, sufficient sunlight, close to a water source, convenient irrigation and drainage, and where no crops have been planted. Renovate the soil in advance, then apply enough base fertilizer, separate the soil into grooves, and finally level the soil and wait for sowing.

Before sowing, you should choose varieties of good quality, then put the seeds in the sun to dry for a few days. After that, soak the dried seeds in the medicine for 1 hour, wash the seeds, and then you can wait for sowing.

3. Sow seeds at the right time

Sowing is generally carried out from late December to mid-January. Sprinkle the seeds evenly on the soil and sprinkle a little fine soil until the seeds are invisible. Cover with about 1 meter of thatch, then water appropriately and cover with a film to keep warm, so as to increase the germination rate of the seeds.

4. Post-management

The seedlings of chili pepper will survive about a week after transplanting. During this period, the seedlings need to be watered and replanted. Water them 1-2 times every half a month. When it rains heavily, the water needs to be drained in time. When pests and diseases occur, pesticides need to be sprayed in time, but high concentrations of pesticides cannot be sprayed during flowering.
