How to feed peppers during flowering: a note for summer residents

Caring for heat-loving peppers in open ground has its own rules and subtleties.

During flowering, it requires nutrients for the formation and growth of fruits.

Phosphorus and potassium

These elements promote the development of the root system and improve the quality of fruits. Potassium phosphate and monopotassium phosphate can be used as fertilizers for peppers during flowering.

Magnesium

This element promotes root development and increases crop yield. Magnesium salt, magnesium sulfate and dolomite can be used to feed peppers during flowering.

Nitrogen

This element is essential for plant growth and development. Ammonium nitrate or urea should be used with caution, as excess nitrogen can lead to the accumulation of nitrates in fruits.

Microelements

Peppers need micronutrients such as boron, iron, copper and zinc for proper root development and fruit formation.

Spraying the leaves with micronutrient solutions can help improve fruit quality.
