A means for increasing the yield of peppers

We are talking about... iodine - that same solution from the first aid kit.

Add 20 drops of iodine to a bucket of water.

The resulting solution should be used to water the plant at the root. There should be 10 liters of the prepared liquid per square meter.

Thanks to this feeding, the plant will be protected from rot and pests.

There will be no problems with flowering and fruiting: a lot of peppers will form. And all thanks to the improved absorption of nitrogen from the soil cover.

In addition, the fruits will be very tasty.

You shouldn’t forget about other important fertilizers for peppers: ash infusion, organic matter, yeast solution, etc.

Earlier, summer residents were told whether it is possible to sprinkle soda on the beds .
