Methods and techniques for growing peppers

1. Planting time

When planting peppers, there are not many time restrictions and they can be sown all year round. The best time is March to May, or November to December in spring. In the southern regions, they can safely overwinter in the open field.

2. Prepare seeds

There are many varieties of peppers. You can choose the seeds in advance and then process the seeds, mainly disinfection and germination. You can soak them in warm water at about 50℃, take them out after about 15 minutes, then soak them for germination, and disinfect them in disinfectant solution. After these treatments, you can wash them in clean water, put them aside to dry, and wait to sow the seeds.

3. Soil requirements

Prepare suitable soil, which should be loose, breathable and nutritious. Turn the soil over with a shovel before sowing to make the soil loose and soft, which will be conducive to seed germination and growth.

4. Seeding and Seedling Raising

Water the soil thoroughly, then sow the seeds into the soil, covering it with about one centimeter of soil to prevent the seeds from blowing away. Keep the soil moist and the temperature at around 25-30 degrees Celsius, and it will germinate in about 3-5 days.

5. Planting

After it grows a few leaves and its root system is fully developed, you can choose a sunny day to transplant and plant it and carry out subsequent maintenance management.
