The correct method of watering chili

Germination period: pepper seeds need to absorb enough water before they can germinate, so they need to soak for about 6-8 hours. Seedling stage: not too much watering, so as not to cause poor soil ventilation, resulting in poor root development, the emergence of dead seedlings. Early flowering period: during the fruit expansion period, we should appropriately increase the amount of water to meet the water needs of flowering and fruit setting, and ensure the yield, but we should also be careful not to have stagnant water, which will lead to falling flowers, fruits and even rotten seedlings. If you encounter Rain Water season, pay attention to drainage.

First, the water demand of hot pepper at each stage

Pepper has different sensitivity to water shortage in different growth periods, especially in the sensitive period of water shortage, which will have a great impact on the yield of pepper.

The main results are as follows: 1. the amount of water of pepper is also different in different growth stages. the plant is smaller and the leaf area is small in the early stage of growth, so the amount of water should not be too much in this period.

2. In the peak growth period, due to the fast growth rate, the leaf area will gradually begin to increase and reach the maximum, during which the amount of water needed to be increased.

2. In the later stage of growth, the leaves of the plant begin to turn yellow, the function of photosynthesis will gradually weaken, the transpiration of the plant will begin to decrease, and the amount of water should be reduced at the same time.

3. The lack of water in production will significantly reduce the yield of hot pepper, so it is necessary to replenish water in time during planting.

The correct method of watering chili peppers

1. Germination period

Seeds need to absorb enough water to germinate, because the pepper seed coat is relatively thick, so the rate of water absorption will be relatively slow, before germination, soak the seeds for about 6-8 hours to make it absorb enough water.

If the soaking time is too long, it will lead to the outflow of nutrients and the phenomenon of insufficient oxygen, thus affecting the viability of seeds, while the soaking time is too short, it will not be conducive to seed germination, and because of uneven and insufficient water absorption, seeds will be damaged in the process of germination, resulting in a decrease in seed germination rate.

2. Seedling stage

During the seedling period, the plant needs less water, so it is suitable for watering small water. if it is watered too much, it will cause poor soil ventilation, lack of oxygen, poor stress resistance, germ invasion, poor root system development, weak plant growth, and a large number of dead seedlings. therefore, do not irrigate the seedling bed at this stage, mainly do a good job of temperature control and humidity reduction, when the weather is clear, the mulch can be opened to strengthen ventilation.

3. Early flowering stage

In the early flowering stage and fruit expansion period, the amount of water can be appropriately increased to meet the needs of flowering, branching and fruit setting. If it is not watered enough, it will result in less fruit and fruit deformity, but if there is too much water in the soil, it will lead to falling flowers and fruit. Fruit seedlings rot, so it is necessary to grasp the amount of water.

In the rainy season, it is necessary to do a good job of drainage so that there is no stagnant water in the border, and in the hot summer weather, it is necessary to cultivate soil to cover water, cool down, and strengthen watering and irrigation. the planted soil should be planted in a plot with deep soil layer and good water retention, which is conducive to the high and stable yield of hot pepper.
