How long can a pepper tree live?

1. How many years can you live?

Peppers are usually annual plants, but now there are perennial varieties that can live for six years. This is a high-efficiency and high-yield variety introduced from abroad. The plant height can reach between two and five meters, and the fruit set rate is also very high. Each plant can produce more than 100 fruits in the first year. It has thin skin, thick flesh, strong spicy flavor, and is very durable in transportation. In addition, it has high disease resistance and cold tolerance, and can produce peppers normally as long as the temperature is not lower than 12 degrees.

2. How to grow more fruits

1. Pruning: It usually bears fruit in autumn. If you want it to bear more fruit next year, you should pay attention to pruning at this time. You also need to pinch the buds and top the branches when the branches and the main trunk reach 15 cm. This will promote the growth of branches and make it easier to bloom, which will naturally produce more fruits.

2. Fertilization: If you want to produce more fruits, you need nutrients. Only when there are sufficient nutrients can you produce more peppers. Start fertilizing three months after planting, once a month. Pay attention to applying thin fertilizers frequently. It is best to use organic liquid fertilizer, which is most conducive to absorption, making it grow more vigorously and conducive to fruiting.

3. Temperature: Temperature control during maintenance is very important. It is best to keep the temperature consistently above 15 degrees. Pay attention to keeping warm in winter. If planting on a large area, use plastic film to keep warm and moist. In addition, you should also pay attention to high temperatures. Once the temperature exceeds 35 degrees, you should sprinkle more water to cool it down.
