The essence of the life hack

In summer, the length of daylight hours is significant. And this, oddly enough, is not very good for peppers.

A 10-hour daylight period is ideal for garden crops. In this case, there are no problems with the formation of buds.

To protect the plant from “excess” light, from the end of the calendar spring until the beginning of the second summer month, you need to carry out the following procedure every evening: cover the garden crop with dark agrofibre.

It is advisable to start at seven o'clock in the evening. The material should be removed at about seven in the morning.

Earlier, summer residents were told what they needed to do in early spring to be able to grow large strawberries.
