(2) New methods of planting chili peppers

1. Soak the seeds of hot pepper with medicine

In order to prevent and cure the common and frequent pepper anthracnose, bacterial spot disease and virus disease, the seeds were pre-soaked in clean water for 5 hours, then soaked in 1% copper sulfate solution, 10% trisodium phosphate solution and 2% sodium hydroxide solution for 10 minutes.

two。 The soaked seeds were accelerated to germinate under variable temperature.

Wrap the soaked seeds in a wet cloth and put them in a warm place to sprout. The daily control time is 28-30 ℃ for 18 hours and 16-20 ℃ for 6 hours. Turn and scrub twice a day to make it heated and wet evenly, sprouting evenly and strong. Generally, when the germination reaches more than 80% in 4-7 days, the temperature can be reduced to 10 ℃ for low temperature seedling refining for about 7 hours, waiting for sowing.

3. Pseudo-planting of seedlings after sowing

Prepare the seedling bed according to the conventional requirements, use farm manure, pour enough water from the bottom of the seedling bed before sowing, and lay nutritious soil. Then spread the germinated seeds evenly and spread the plastic film and build a small arch shed to cover the film, in order to increase temperature and moisture, and promote early, complete and strong seedlings. When the seedlings grow to 4-5 true leaves, the distance between the holes is 10 cm square, and two plants in each hole are transplanted into the adjacent arch shed for tube culture. To 10-20 true leaves and 90-110 days of seedling age, it can be transplanted in the field on a sunny day.
