Pepper alias Niujiao pepper, long pepper, vegetable pepper, lantern pepper. It is green when it is immature and turns red, orange or fuchsia when it is ripe, with a spicy or sweet taste. Chili peppers can also be planted in pots, so how to fertilize potted peppers?

How to fertilize potted chili peppers

1. Base fertilizer

Seedling pot fertilization is mainly to prepare seedling soil, the substrate must be fertile soil, and sufficient fertilizer should be applied at the same time, otherwise it will affect the growth of pepper in the later stage, and topdressing 1-2 times depending on the growth of seedling.

two。 Topdressing

On the basis of applying sufficient base fertilizer to plant hot pepper, topdressing is necessary for many times. When the fruit began to expand, "fruit-promoting fertilizer" was applied to enter the full fruit stage, after each fruit harvest, topdressing for a total of 3 times; after entering the full fruit stage, the fertilizer absorption capacity of the root system decreased. Spraying once a week for three times is beneficial to delay senescence, prolong harvest time and improve fruit quality.

2. Fertilization skills of hot pepper

1. Heavy application of organic fertilizer

More mature organic fertilizer should be applied during the growing period. Some enzyme bacteria fertilizer and bio-organic fertilizer can be added. Soil-borne diseases are serious, and some Bacillus bio-organic fertilizers can be applied.

two。 Rational selection of chemical fertilizer

When chemical fertilizer is used as base fertilizer, choose simple fertilizer as far as possible, such as urea, calcium superphosphate and potassium sulfate. When topdressing compound fertilizer, we should choose compound fertilizer containing nitrate nitrogen as far as possible.

3. Rational distribution of base fertilizer

In general, organic fertilizer, micro fertilizer, 80% phosphate fertilizer, 50% potassium fertilizer and 30% nitrogen fertilizer are mixed and used as base fertilizer, and the remaining 70% nitrogen fertilizer, 20% phosphate fertilizer and 50% potash fertilizer are used as topdressing respectively. Some trace elements can be foliar sprayed.

Pepper is an important vegetable and condiment, seed oil is edible, fruit also has the effect of deworming and sweating.
