How to Grow Big Bell Peppers: Baking Soda Will Help Make Fruits Twice as Large
30.06.2023 07:16
Bell pepper is considered a rather capricious garden crop.
But experienced gardeners achieve excellent results in growing this vegetable.
It turns out that the plant responds very well to sodium bicarbonate.
Or, to put it simply, with regular baking soda. This is the product that should become the basis for a very interesting and unusual fertilizer for peppers.
How to prepare the remedy
Of course, sodium bicarbonate is not the only component of the non-standard fertilizer.
You will need other ingredients, too. But they can probably be found in any home.
The container in which the fertilizer will be “prepared” should be a standard bucket.
You need to pour 50 grams of sodium bicarbonate and one teaspoon of table salt there.
The dry mixture must be filled with plain water until the container is full.
You need to drop a little liquid soap into the liquid. It is necessary so that the product "sticks" well to the leaf blades of the bushes.
The contents of the bucket must be mixed well so that everything dissolves.
How to use the product
The plant should be watered with the prepared liquid once every two weeks.
Such treatment will provide the crop with protection from diseases and dangerous insects, and will also increase the chances of forming large fruits. It is possible that the formed vegetables will be twice as large as usual.
