Why bell peppers don't bloom: the most common reason

29.06.2023 16:32

Despite the fact that a crop such as bell peppers has seemingly been studied inside and out, gardeners still make annoying mistakes when growing it.

The result, of course, is unpleasant and does not take long to appear.

A common outcome in such situations is the pepper's refusal to bloom.

This may be due to an excess of nitrogen.

This situation is observed when a gardener obsessively uses manure or herbal infusion as fertilizer on his plot.

Due to excessive amounts of nitrogen-containing fertilizers, you may not see any fruit.

If the problem is of a slightly different nature - there are flowers, but no ovaries are observed, the high humidity in the greenhouse is to blame.

Excessively high temperatures also have a detrimental effect, as do cold spells when the thermometer drops below 12 degrees.
