Sweet pepper is a rather difficult crop to grow, especially if we are talking about a novice gardener.

Therefore, sometimes you have to deal with the fact that the plant either does not develop or simply does not produce a harvest.

With a couple of tricks, the situation can be corrected, says agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert at the online publication BelNovosti.

What secrets are we talking about?

Important feeding

In order for the pepper harvest to be good, special fertilizing should be done at least four times during the summer season. To do this, simply dilute a liter of ash in ten liters of water.

You need to wait a day before applying fertilizer.

For each pepper, take two glasses of the prepared product. The interval between applications should be seven days.

This remedy, despite its simplicity, produces impressive results.

Another useful trick

Many people know that it is necessary to remove shoots and leaves that have formed before the fork. The point is that this will help the pepper to focus on forming a crop.

If this is not done, the pepper may completely “refuse” to bear fruit or will produce an extremely mediocre harvest with small fruits.

So keep these two simple methods in mind as they really do give good results.
