Rules for growing thick-walled pepper seedlings

According to the basic methods of growing peppers with thick walls, there are no differences from ordinary varieties. Agricultural technology is standard, but we must remember that to get juicy fruits with the indicators indicated in the descriptions, you need to provide peppers with good care.

When the description contains information that a variety or hybrid of culture is unpretentious, this does not mean that it requires a minimum of care. Even the most non-capricious and super-productive variety will not be able to please you if you forget about watering, top dressing (especially hybrids), formation.

Growing the culture directly on the beds, you need to control the weather and, if necessary, cover the plants with a film, special materials. Of great importance is the preparation of soil, seeds, as well as proper care during the entire growing season.

Sowing seeds

A feature of growing sweet pepper in our Russian conditions is the presence of a seedling period.Since this crop has a fairly long ripening period (even early peppers), early seed sowing and seedling cultivation, first at home, helps to create the right run in time.

Seeds of hybrid forms usually do not need preliminary preparation. There is also no need to process the seed if the bags indicate that the peppers have already passed the necessary procedures. For all other seeds, disinfection, soaking in growth stimulants, as well as germination are carried out.

Experienced gardeners already have an idea of ​​the timing of sowing, they know and take into account the characteristics of the climate of the area, the timing of ripening peppers, weather.

For seed dressing, potassium permanganate is used, keeping the seeds in it for no more than 20 minutes. The solution should be pink; after the procedure, the peppers are washed.

To speed up the germination of peppers, it is recommended to soak them in various special preparations. For this, they usually use:

• Zircon;
• Epin.

Ash infusions are also used, ashes are then used to treat already adult peppers from pests, for top dressing. The seeds are hardened on a shelf in the refrigerator, and germinated in ordinary wet tissue.

There is nothing complicated here, such procedures take a little time, but there will be confidence that you will get healthier and better seedlings.

Seed germination

For sowing, various containers are used - boxes, glasses, containers. When sowing in general containers, later, seedlings will need to be transplanted in separate dishes, and this is very stressful for peppers.

Recently, gardeners most often immediately sow peppers in separate cups, then carry out the usual transshipment of plants into larger pots.

The soil should be nutritious, loose, high-quality. Using the earth prepared since the fall, do not forget to steam it, then you can spill it with a solution of potassium permanganate. Ready soil mixtures are suitable, while the composition should include such components as:

• Earth;
• peat;
• baking powder (perlite, vermiculite, sand);
• humus.

Mixes from the store, consisting of one peat are not suitable for peppers. To such soil it is required to add humus, earth (turf, leaf, sand).

Seeds are sown in small grooves (if sown in boxes), in holes (if sown immediately in cups). They withstand temperatures of + 28ºC ... + 30ºC for the entire germination period, as soon as sprouts of peppers appear, they are brought to light and reduced to + 18ºC. It will be enough to withstand seedlings in this mode for about 5-6 days, then again increase it to + 23ºC ... + 25ºC.

This is done so that the seedlings of peppers are not stretched. It is also important to provide the peppers with more light.

Dive seedlings

As soon as 2-3 real leaflets appear on peppers, you will need to dive (transplant). In advance you need to prepare the dishes where you will move the peppers.

Reception is carried out only if the seeds were sown in common boxes. In this case, the work must be carried out very carefully, without damaging the delicate roots of plants.

After a dive, seedlings shade from the rays of the sun for about 2-3 days. At this time, peppers will slow down in growth, will adapt to new conditions and this will take about 4-7 days.

The rest of the care for thick-walled peppers is standard. Having mastered simple tricks and following the recommendations, you will always get a harvest of delicious fruits.
