Ten years of experience in growing chili peppers, ten years of high yield of chili peppers, and only four high-yielding skills need to be mastered.

Frequently received advice from farmers about high-yield pepper skills and planting methods, today summed up to farmers four points of pepper high-yield must pay attention to four points.

These four high-yield chili pepper techniques are my experience over the years and will definitely help you.

(1) not paying attention to the stubble of hot pepper

Many farmers do not pay attention to pepper stubble, a piece of land to grow pepper year after year, resulting in the accumulation of various germs in the soil, so that pepper disease is serious year by year, resulting in a large number of dead pepper seedlings and rotten roots. So that later, some farmers did not dare to grow chili.

Reasonable crop rotation is the basis of pepper production.

Pepper belongs to Solanaceae crops, it is best to rotate with non-Solanaceae crops, such as cruciferae, legumes, Gramineae crops, onions, garlic and so on.

Pepper stubble should not be repeated with tomatoes, eggplant, tobacco, potatoes, melons and vegetables. Such crops have not been planted for at least three years.

The best stubble of pepper stubble is spring onion and garlic stubble. Soil-borne bacteria of pepper will be killed by root exudates of spring onion and garlic vegetables. The nutritional characteristics and fertilizer absorption ratio of spring onion and garlic vegetables are also different from those of pepper, and their nutrients can complement each other, especially trace elements.

(2) not paying attention to the fertilization technology of hot pepper

Many farmers do not pay attention to the fertilization technology of hot pepper. In fact, in the case of the same pepper varieties and the same management conditions, the amount of fertilization, the type of fertilizer and the ratio of various nutrient elements determine the growth status, yield, quality, harvest time and length of pepper plants.

(3) Farmers are too dense or too thin when planting chili peppers.

The planting of pepper is too sparse during cultivation, which can not seal the ridge of pepper plant in high temperature season, which is easy to cause pepper virus disease and pepper sunburn disease, and directly lead to low total yield and low benefit of pepper. Pepper planting density is too dense, especially in the protected area, it is easy to cause poor ventilation and light transmission conditions in the field, resulting in excessive humidity in the field, resulting in the occurrence of various diseases of pepper.

Therefore, reasonable close planting of pepper is an important measure to achieve high yield of pepper. Reasonable close planting should look at the specific characteristics of cultivated pepper varieties, such as large plant size, large degree of development, appropriate sparse planting; such as short and compact plant type, can be planted more densely.

(4) Farmers do not pay attention to watering quality and watering techniques when planting chili peppers.

Pepper is a non-waterlogging-tolerant vegetable, and a large number of pepper seedlings will die after flooding, which is an important reason for the low benefit of pepper. The most common wrong watering method is flood irrigation.

In the cultivation of pepper, improper watering and drainage will lead to the decrease of yield and benefit. Especially in the pepper land with large slope, the low-lying pepper land is easy to rett root or die of blight, and the yield of Shangshuitou pepper is reduced because of drought and virus disease.

Farmers planting chili peppers, scientific watering should pay attention to the following points.

1. Small water should be used to irrigate chili peppers, and flood irrigation should be avoided.

two。 In the rainy summer season, drainage ditches should be made, and hot pepper fields should not accumulate water. If it rains and drains in time, the standard is that the rain stops the bed water to dry.

3. Pepper is not watered at the early flowering stage to prevent pepper from falling flowers and fruit; pepper is watered frequently in the peak fruit-sitting period to keep the ground moist, especially after topdressing, so as to promote pepper stem and leaf growth and fruit expansion.

4. When the temperature is low, chili peppers are watered in the morning and evening to lower the ground temperature. When the temperature exceeds 30 °C, watering of chili peppers is strictly prohibited at noon.

5. In places where water is scarce or economic conditions permit, farmers who grow chili peppers can lay drip irrigation pipes and use drip irrigation techniques. Drip irrigation has the advantages of reducing soil nutrient loss, effectively reducing field humidity of pepper, reducing the occurrence of diseases, saving water resources, improving yield and quality of pepper and so on.
