Growing peppers in a greenhouse: what you need to know about this process?
Peppers in the greenhouse can be grown in two ways: from seeds and seedlings.
Most gardeners consider the best way planting seedlings. But this method is suitable only for small areas of cultivation.
For huge land resources suitable seed growingsince buying seedlings is very expensive.
We list the main stages of growing peppers in a greenhouse with the help of seeds:
- The first step is to prepare the soil. We need to ensure that the earth was crumbly, there were no boulders.
- The second step is seed preparation. Seed can not be immediately planted in the soil, they must first be processed. This process occurs as follows: the seeds are soaked in a growth stimulator for twelve hours. This is done to wake up the growth cells in the seeds.
- And the last step is planting seeds. First you need to prepare a furrow forty millimeters deep. After that, sprinkle evenly the seeds.
It is necessary to install a drainage, which consists of crushed stone or large size expanded clay. Everyone knows that pepper needs fertile soils. To do this, mix peat, black soil and sand, in a ratio of one to one. Fertilizers are not yet worth making, but you can irrigate the soil with a growth stimulator. The air temperature in the greenhouse should be from +10 to +15 degrees.
Now consider the main positive aspects of growing this crop with the help of seedlings:
- The first advantage is the short period of ripening culture. Peppers can try a month earlier. Saving time goes first on the germination of seeds, and then also on the achievement of seedlings. Growing peppers with seedlings for cold regions is especially good.
- With this method of cultivation requires less care for the plant. Watering the culture is provided in the first two weeks of growth, and then the pepper grows itself even during drought. If necessary, watering is carried out before flowering, for filling the pods. Moreover, seedlings are practically not susceptible to diseases, because the most delicate period is the first two weeks of seed germination.
- When planting with seedlings, you can choose a plant with greater vitality. When planting seeds, it is impossible to determine how the pepper will grow, but when planting with seedlings, there is a high probability of buying quality material. The main thing in choosing is to pay attention to the color of the leaves (it should be dark green) and their density, which indicates a good metabolism of nutrients.
The process of planting culture should begin in March.
Some ask this question: why does the pepper in the greenhouse begin to turn yellow?
This problem is related to the quality of land in the greenhouse. Due to the lack of certain nutrients, the formation of the plant is disturbed and the leaves begin to turn yellow.
Also, this process can be associated with poor watering or low temperature in the room. Everyone remembers that pepper culture is fastidious and it is necessary to constantly monitor it.
Many recommend feeding the seedlings with various complex fertilizers, the number of which is now unlimited. During the period of growing seedlings feed pepper twice.
First time after ten days after landing. During the formation of buds need to make fertilizer with nitrogen, and during the formation of fruit fertilizers with potassium and phosphorus.
It is important to know that the first fruit must be cut. This process further stimulates the plant to more active growth and development of culture.
As you know, pepper is in great need in high-quality watering. Watering should be carried out infrequently, but very abundant. After each watering it is necessary to loosen the soil.
