Pepper is a useful crop loved by many gardeners.
The popularity of the plants is obvious, as is their benefit. Gardeners like to grow peppers, considering their stable yield.
However, to get a large harvest of peppers, you will have to try hard, as there are many more dry days. And sometimes in May it warms up as if there is an African summer outside.
How to water peppers correctly
Lack of moisture will negatively affect the growth and development of peppers, which may delay flowering, and the harvest will be too meager.
On hot days, organize watering twice a day: water in the morning and in the evening, avoiding watering during the day when there is too much scorching sun rays.
On cloudy days and moderately warm weather, it is enough to water once every 2-3 days.
After planting the seedlings in open ground at the initial growth phase, water them with 0.5 liters per plant.
Grown bushes will require a little more water - up to one and a half liters for each bush. On light sandy soils, plants are watered a little more abundantly.
In extreme heat and drought, up to 3 liters of water can be added under each pepper.
In cool weather, if the temperature drops below 15 degrees Celsius, watering is reduced and can be completely eliminated.
It is best to water the peppers at the root or in special furrows that need to be made along the entire row of bushes.
