Pepper can be seen in many country plots.
But summer residents are not always satisfied with the results of caring for the garden crop. The fruits often turn out small and tasteless.
In most cases, this outcome is caused by a lack of nutrients in the soil, as well as improper watering of the plant.
However, following two simple rules will significantly increase your chances of getting a bountiful and high-quality pepper harvest.
How to water peppers
Of course, the plant needs moisture. Any gardener remembers this, so he or she waters the crop regularly.
The problem is that the procedure is not always carried out correctly.
So, some gardeners use cold water. This is a gross mistake, because of which the peppers turn out small.
To ensure that the fruits grow large, only warm liquid should be used for watering.
How to feed peppers
It is also necessary to remember about timely replenishment of the deficiency of nutrients in the soil.
It is advisable to use not only mineral fertilizers. The emphasis should be on "organic".
The ideal fertilizer for peppers consists of three ingredients: nettle, manure and ash.
All these components should be in a large barrel. You need to use four kilos of the plant, one bucket of manure and 10 tablespoons of unburned wood residue.
The remaining volume of the container should be filled with plain water. After 24 hours, the excellent natural fertilizer will be ready.
One liter of the prepared liquid solution should be poured under each pepper bush.
