When is the best time to spray vinegar on peppers (how to use vinegar to increase pepper yields)

In the process of growing various vegetables, everyone has tried different production methods. Some spray vinegar solution, some spray sugar solution, some spray amino acids, some spray regulators, and some spray trace elements.

However, we are all trying various methods to promote plant growth and give plants better yield and quality. Today we will talk about why we need to spray vinegar when growing peppers?

What are the benefits and effects of spraying vinegar on peppers

Let’s first talk about the two main functions of vinegar.

First, acetic acid has a bactericidal effect in agricultural production.

Vinegar has a certain killing effect on some harmful bacteria that grow in alkaline environments, because vinegar is acidic and its pH value is about 3.5.

Spraying vinegar will adjust the growth environment to neutral, which can kill certain harmful bacteria, thereby achieving the effect of disease resistance and increased yield.

Second, everyone knows that vinegar contains a large amount of amino acids.

In modern agricultural planting processes, the most popular are amino acids, which promote the growth of plant roots, branches and leaves during the seedling stage or when plant growth is unfavorable.

Spraying amino acids on the leaves is conducive to the rapid division of plant cells and increases the resistance of plants. Spraying pepper vinegar can not only increase the utilization rate of fertilizers and drugs, but also allow plants to absorb them quickly.

How to use vinegar in pepper planting

In the process of growing peppers, no matter what kind of fertilizer we use, there are generally two methods, topdressing and foliar spraying of fertilizer .

Vinegar can be applied during the topdressing process . Since the pH value of vinegar is acidic, it is not recommended to be mixed with alkaline fertilizers or drugs.

In general, vinegar solution can be diluted 300~500 times for flushing, and 200~300 times for foliar spray .

The main function of vinegar is to regulate plant growth. During use, it is best to use it together with a large amount of acidic elements for the best effect.

This can promote rapid division of roots and cells, rapid absorption, and thus better absorption of large amounts of elements.

Spraying time of vinegar solution during pepper planting

Vinegar can be used at every stage of pepper cultivation to promote plant growth.

When peppers are damaged by pesticides, frost or other diseases during their growth process, or when the plants grow slowly, you can spray vinegar to improve the growth environment of the peppers, promote rapid growth and shorten the recovery period of the plants.

Vinegar can be used throughout the growth period of peppers, but it works best in the seedling stage . Peppers do not need a lot of nutrients in the seedling stage, as long as it promotes the rapid growth of the plant, the effect is best.

【 Summarize 】

Everyone has mastered the role and usage of vinegar. It has a significant effect on increasing the yield of peppers in the agricultural process, so everyone can use it in moderation.
