How often should peppers be watered?

How to water peppers

1. Look at the soil when watering : When watering peppers, you can adhere to the principle of "moderate amount, water when dry". Generally, you can wait until the soil is completely dry before watering.

2. Water according to the weather : If you water on a sunny day, you can increase the frequency of watering appropriately. If it is rainy, you should postpone watering and pay attention to timely drainage of the plants.

Notes on watering peppers

1. The root system of pepper seedlings is small and sparse, and its absorption capacity is weak, so when planting them in the seedbed, there must be sufficient water, but no water accumulation.

2. If the pepper does not have enough water during its growth period, the yield of the pepper will be significantly reduced, so it is necessary to replenish water for the plant in time during this period.

What to do if you overwater peppers

If you water the peppers too much, you need to turn the soil first to speed up the evaporation of water, then add some dry soil to enhance the air permeability of the soil, and then keep the environment ventilated.
