The solution to the low fruit setting rate of sweet pepper

Sweet pepper is different from other peppers, its taste is not only not spicy, but also with a little sweet, but also has the advantages of high yield and good efficiency, so it is a very suitable market for cultivation. But many sweet pepper growers say that the fruit setting rate is low, so how to solve it? Let's get to know it.

1. Promote root and fruit

The root system of sweet pepper is weak, so it is necessary to ensure that the soil has enough air permeability during cultivation, which is beneficial to promote the rooting and development of sweet pepper, but the temperature is higher in summer, so it is not suitable for ridging and planting, otherwise the root system may be burned, but flat bed cultivation should be adopted. Therefore, it is suggested that biological bacterial fertilizer should be used to improve fertilizer soil, promote root growth and development, and cultivate strong fruit, so as to improve the disease resistance and stress resistance of sweet pepper, which can reduce the occurrence of low fruit setting rate.

2. Temperature control and water control

In summer high temperature, we must control the temperature and humidity, otherwise it is very easy to fall flowers and fruits. Generally, if the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, it will lead to poor differentiation of sweet pepper and uneven pollination, thus affecting the fruit setting rate, so it is necessary to control the temperature within 35 degrees. If it is too high, you have to find a way to come down. In addition, sweet peppers like to be wet and afraid of waterlogging. If the soil moisture is too high, it will also affect the fruit setting rate, so watering should not be flooded, or measures should be taken to draw a hoe after watering to ensure that the soil is dry and wet, and that it should be drained in time in the rainy season.

3. Control prosperity

In the environment of high temperature and humidity, sweet pepper is very easy to grow, branches and leaves are very easy to grow, if the effect of temperature control and water control is poor, it is necessary to use health control agent to control plant growth. The commonly used strength control agents can help the strong rope or the short strong cable, which can effectively control the vegetative growth of the plant, promote the reproductive growth of the plant, and improve the fruit setting rate of sweet pepper.

4. Spraying micro-fertilizer

Boron is one of the essential elements for flower bud differentiation of sweet pepper. Boron deficiency in sweet pepper often leads to flower bud dysplasia and low fruit setting rate, so boron-containing liquid fertilizer can be sprayed at flowering stage, which can not only supplement nutrition for plants, but also reduce flower and fruit drop phenomenon. effectively improve fruit setting rate.

The above is the solution to the low fruit setting rate of sweet pepper. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
