What fertilizer is best for green peppers?

Green pepper fertilization time

Green peppers are mainly fertilized before planting and during the growth process. Fertilizer is applied once during a fruiting cycle to allow it to have sufficient strength to bear fruit a second time.

After the green peppers emerge, young fruits have formed. At this time, fruit fertilizer should be applied in time, mainly decomposed human feces and urine. After watering once, nitrogen fertilizer should be applied twice.

What fertilizer is good for green peppers

Before sowing, you can apply base fertilizer to the soil of green peppers, and apply decomposed farmyard manure and compound fertilizer per acre to increase its growth rate. During the growth period, fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium need to be applied to promote the differentiation of flower buds, so that there will be more flowering and more fruits.

Green pepper fertilization method

1. Apply base fertilizer heavily. The growth period of green pepper is very long, and applying enough base fertilizer is very important for its growth. You can apply farmyard manure and nitrate, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

2. Apply fertilizer during the growth period. When the diameter of the green pepper reaches 2-3 cm, apply nitric acid phosphate fertilizer per mu in combination with fruit-inducing water. During the rapid fruiting period, apply nitric acid phosphate fertilizer per mu in combination with soil cultivation. After entering the rainy season, apply nitric acid phosphate fertilizer per mu.

3. Control fertilization during the flowering period to avoid falling flowers, leaves and fruits, which will lead to a decrease in yield.

4. Fertilization is also required in time during the young fruit stage and harvest period to promote the growth of fruit and rapid growth of branches, and promote the second flowering and fruiting.

Notes on fertilizing green peppers

Do not use raw fertilizers or high-concentration fertilizers for green peppers. Do not apply top dressing when the soil is very wet or in the rainy season. Do not apply fertilizers at noon when the temperature is very high, and do not concentrate fertilizers in one place each time.
