How to feed peppers with ash
It is important to remember that excessive application of ash alkalizes the soil and can damage the crop.
It is optimal to combine fertilizing with soil loosening. One glass of ash is needed per square meter.
The interval between ash and nitrogen fertilizers should be at least a month. Ash negates all the benefits of nitrogen fertilizers.
In addition, ash left over from burning plastic, construction waste and painted wood cannot be used to feed plants.
