Green pepper prefers a warm and humid environment. It is suitable for planting in loose, fertile, deep loam and sandy loam. It can be planted in soil with a pH value of 6.5-8.0, but the best growth results are achieved in the pH range of 7.0-7.5. Sandy soils and soils with heavy clay are not suitable for planting. It is cold-resistant and drought-resistant, but not waterlogged.

Green pepper planting climate

Green pepper prefers an environment with plenty of sunlight and is suitable for growing in a sunny, dry and cool environment, but it is not cold-resistant. It is distributed in areas with a temperature of 17-18 degrees and an annual rainfall of 900-1300 mm and is relatively drought-resistant.

Green pepper planting area

Green peppercorns are generally grown in low mountain and hilly areas and semi-mountainous areas, and are often distributed in sparse woods or bushes from plains to mountains with an altitude of 800 meters. They are grown in both the north and south of China, and their planting range in China is relatively wide.

Green pepper planting time

Green pepper prefers a warm environment and is suitable for sowing in spring and autumn. In spring, it can be done in March and April, and in autumn, it can be done before the soil freezes.

Green pepper planting benefits

Green peppercorns grow quickly, bear fruit in three years, and come into production in four years. They are simple to cultivate and manage, and can produce high yields even when planted on mountainous land without competing with grain for land. They are a good way for farmers to get rid of poverty and become rich, making use of surplus rural labor and mountain resources to help the rapid development of the rural economy.
