Growing any pepper on a plot can be associated with many problems - quite often they become crooked.
Why do they take this form? Let's look into this issue.
It is believed that it makes no difference where the peppers will grow - you can use a greenhouse, a hotbed or film.
But sometimes the fruits become small and crooked - this can happen for various reasons.
What gardeners do wrong:
- Lack of nutrition. Pepper needs regular feeding. Without it, the fruit becomes small - it simply does not fill out.
- Not enough light and low temperature. Bad weather can cause the curvature, and this is very dangerous for the plant during flowering.
- Poor quality seeds. If the pepper is obtained from a second generation hybrid, this may cause crooked fruits.
- Irregular watering. Pepper does not like too wet soil, but it still needs watering 1-2 times a week.
It is also recommended to remove the very first flower as the pepper grows.
