How to feed pepper in a greenhouse in July. When and how to feed peppers at home and after planting in the ground. During flowering and ovary formation

Proper nutrition of pepper will help to grow a large crop

Pepper (lat. Capsicum annuum) is an annual representative of the Solanaceae family. The plant is not picky in care, grows in conditions of moderately warm temperature (from 18 to 25 degrees Celsius) and humidity of 70-85%. In order for the harvest of peppers to please, timely and correctly selected dressing is necessary.

How to feed pepper after planting in the ground

Before proceeding to transplant seedlings, soil preparation is carried out. At 1 sq. M. make half a bucket of compost, 100 grams of ash, 0.5 tbsp. double superphosphate and 1 tsp potassium sulfate. After fertilizing, the soil is plowed, shed warmed up to 50 degrees. Celsius with water, and cover with a film.

Rules for watering pepper before dressing

Watering the pepper must be done a day or two before top dressing in liquid form. This applies to both prepared solutions and complex fertilizers, but not to organic matter. When fertilizing, the soil should be moist; when using dry mineral fertilizers, repeated watering is carried out.

For the first time, peppers are fed after 15-20 days after planting for the development of the root system and adaptation. It is recommended to use fertilizers in the composition of which the content of phosphates and nitrogen is increased. 2.5 g of double superphosphate and 10 g of urea per bucket of water. Contribute a liter under each pepper to the previously moistened soil. After rooting the plants, one can also use organics: bird droppings or mullein (dissolved in water 1 to 10).

If the soil is not fertile, additional fertilizing will be required to saturate with minerals: 20 g of potassium sulfate and 35-40 g of ammonium nitrate and phosphate. Or replace the complex drug Lifdrip.

Before feeding peppers in a greenhouse, it is important to consider how the soil was prepared for planting. If the above method, then top dressing is used the same as when grown in open ground.

Pepper nutrition during growth and development

During growth, top dressing is performed twice a month, using mineral fertilizers and organics. Growing peppers need a sufficient amount of potassium, calcium, phosphorus and nitrogen. During this period, Nitroammofosku or Azofosku are used according to the instructions.

When peppers grow poorly, than to feed - you need to decide quickly. If there are no signs of diseases, pests and a lack of minerals, use complex fertilizer in small doses: Kemira Suite or Clean Sheet.

Before starting budding, top dressing is carried out with superphosphate and nitrogenous fertilizers (ammonium sulfate, sodium nitrate): 5 and 10 g of mineral fertilizers are dissolved in 10 l of water, respectively, and insisted. Previously, the beds are abundantly watered by sprinkling, and the solution is then applied trying not to get on the leaves, 100-150 g per bush.

Use caution when choosing fertilizer.

When feeding peppers, fertilizers containing chlorine (ammonium chloride) should be avoided, since getting into the root system it “clogs” the sap flow. This will not destroy the plant, but will slow down the access of minerals and its development, and may affect the size and taste of the fruit.

Organic fertilizers use chicken droppings (diluted with water in a ratio of 1 to 5), wood ash (200 g per bucket of water), manure (1 kg per 10 liters of water).

Pepper Fertilizer Recipe: Green Tea

A positive effect on the growth of peppers is top dressing with infusions of herbs and dried flowers. To do this, the leaves and flowers of plantain, dandelion, nettle, coltsfoot and woodlice are collected, finely chopped, put into a bucket and filled with cold water. The solution is left to infuse for 7-8 days, after which it is filtered and poured under each bush for 1 l with top dressing.

How to feed pepper during flowering

A sufficient amount of potassium in the soil is the key to a good flowering of peppers and the formation of an ovary. Therefore, pepper is fed during flowering with potash fertilizers (dry potassium, urea): 1 teaspoon per bucket of water. Natural fertilizers, such as nettle infusion, also have a fruitful effect on peppers.

Peppers can be fed in the greenhouse during flowering with the organic mineral fertilizer Ecohuminat or Dachnik to stimulate the development of the ovaries. They are used in dry form, pouring under each bush the amount indicated on the package. After such fertilizer, pepper is required to be watered.

The introduction of organic matter improves the structure of the soil, increases fertility, and helps to control pests. To prepare top dressing, a bucket of young leaves is collected and poured with cold water for a week and a half until it starts to ferment, and the leaves sink to the bottom. After that, they are filtered and watered with tincture once every 10 days.

During flowering, top dressing of pepper in the greenhouse with mullein (diluted with water in a ratio of 1 to 2) and urea (25 g per 10 liters of cold water) or mineral fertilizers is popular. 1 tablespoon of superphosphate and 1 teaspoon of potassium sulfate are diluted in a bucket of water.

Before feeding peppers during fruiting, pay attention to ripening. If the crop ripens quickly, there are defects on it, and the bushes remain strong and do not fade - you can not fertilize at all.

To accelerate and more uniform ripening, top dressing is carried out with superphosphate and potassium salt (add 2 teaspoons per 10 liters of water) after the fruits ripen. Peppers are fed in the greenhouse after the first harvest. To do this, use manure or chicken droppings - half a bucket of fertilizer is bred with cold water.

Of mineral fertilizers, complex phosphorus-potash (a tablespoon per bucket of 10 liters of water) is used. It is useful to fertilize peppers with urea. To prepare a solution, 25 g of powder is dissolved in water.

Pepper supplementation with growth retardation

Slowing the growth of peppers, wilting of flowers, loss of the saturated color of leaves and stems are the first signs of a shortage or excess of minerals. In this case, an additional root (fertilizer is applied to the soil) or foliar (spray the plants) top dressing is carried out.

If the pepper does not grow well - than to feed it will tell the appearance of the plant. Matte gray leaves on the back are an indicator of a lack of nitrogenous fertilizers. Spray with urea (dilute 1 teaspoon in 10 l of water).

When falling ovaries and flowers, spray peppers with a solution of boric acid (1 teaspoon per bucket of water).

Poor fruit formation indicates an insufficient amount of phosphate and an excess of nitrogen. Spray with a solution: 1 teaspoon of superphosphate per half a bucket of water, and also reduce the use of nitrogenous fertilizers.

Total

There are a lot of fertilizers with which to feed peppers in the greenhouse and in the open ground. Having correctly selected the minerals necessary for the development of plants, you will not only provide them with favorable conditions for growth, but also reduce the incidence of crops, as well as increase productivity.

The yield of most garden crops depends on the nutrition that people provide them. Bell peppers are no exception. Like other vegetables, they need certain nutrients, so it will be useful for each gardener to learn how to feed peppers in a greenhouse and open ground, from seedlings to adult plants.

Peppers can be properly fed with both mineral fertilizers of industrial production and organic, but home-made. They need to be used more often, the poorer the soil on which these tasty vegetables grow, because they differ in an enviable "appetite."

Mineral fertilizers

Those gardeners who have long grown sweet peppers in their beds actively use ready-made mineral mixtures for top dressing, which include certain components. This is very convenient, because at each stage of development of this culture, it needs different chemical elements. For example, in the initial stage of growth, bell pepper especially requires nitrogen and potassium, so for the first time, take the following mixtures to feed seedlings:

• Kemira Suite (20 g of fertilizer per 10 l of water);
• GUMI Kuznetsova (2 tsp. Diluted in 10 l of water).

Even in this period, you can use a mixture of potassium sulfate (3 tsp), ammonium nitrate (2 tsp) and superphosphate (3 tbsp.). Dissolve it in 10 l of water. For the 2nd and 3rd feeding, use such complex fertilizers for pepper as: Crystal (20 g of powder per 10 liters of water), Agricola, Gomel, Uniflor-growth, Nitroammofoska.

Organic fertilizer

You can also feed sweet peppers with organics collected in your home. Below you will find recipes for using organic fertilizers.

Manure or bird droppings

If you have pets, use fresh manure diluted in warm water in a ratio of 1 to 10 and bird droppings - 1 to 20. Leave to insist for a day and water the resulting liquid with plants during their intensive growth.

Ash

Wood ash is another organic fertilizer that cannot be dispensed with when growing bell pepper. Young plants will need it already when planting on beds or in a greenhouse, so when you transplant seedlings, put a handful of ash in each hole. In the future, water them with an aqueous solution of this fertilizer, which is prepared in the ratio: 5 tbsp. l ash on a bucket of warm water.

Feeding pepper with ash is carried out separately from fertilizing with nitrogen-containing fertilizers, both of mineral nature and organic, since they are mutually exclusive.

Kitchen waste

  In addition to traditional manure and ash, you can safely use kitchen waste for feeding bell peppers: stale bread, eggshells, dried banana skins, unsuitable dairy products.

• There is a lot of potassium in bananas, therefore, powder from dry skins can be added to the soil already at the stage of planting seedlings, and then adult plants should be watered with tincture of fresh skins (insist for 3 days 2-3 pcs. In 3 l of water).
• Milk and eggshells contain calcium in a form easily digestible by plants, so make them nutritious tincture for your pets. Take 3 or 4 egg shells, crush them into powder, pour it into a 3 L jar, fill it with hot water and leave for 3 days. Water the seedlings with the resulting solution.
• You can fertilize pepper with fresh infusion of herbs that are easy to find in any garden: nettle, woodlice, dandelion and plantain. Cut them into small pieces, pour a bucket of warm water, insist for a week, and then pour pepper over this liquid (1 liter for each pepper bush).

Iodine

Feeding peppers with iodine pursues several goals at once: it stimulates growth, increases productivity, improves the taste of fruits, and prevents diseases. For feeding peppers, 1-2 drops of the usual alcohol tincture of iodine dissolved in 1 liter of water is enough. An additional 0.1 l of fresh whey can be added to this liquid.

Yeast

Fertilizing pepper with yeast is an agricultural method that is not yet familiar to all gardeners, but very useful for sweet peppers themselves, since yeast contains a lot of useful substances: nitrogen, iron, phosphorus, minerals, and especially vitamins.

Yeast tincture has a double effect: it perfectly stimulates the development of the root and aboveground parts of these vegetables, and also activates the reproduction of beneficial soil bacteria.

To feed peppers, both fresh and dry yeast are suitable. Prepare the fertilizer as follows:

1. Take 1 kg of fresh yeast.
2. Pour them with 5 liters of heated water.
3. Leave to infuse for approximately 1 day.
4. Dilute the infusion in 5 buckets of water and use it for watering.

Prepare top dressing from dry yeast in about the same way. Take 1 sachet and dissolve it in 1 bucket of warm water. Add to it 2 tbsp. l sugar and leave for 2 hours. Then add 0.5 l of yeast liquid to 10 l of warm water. Such vitamin top dressing is needed not so much, it is enough to fertilize peppers 2 times for the entire growing season.

It should be noted that it is necessary to prepare yeast top dressing with the addition of ash, since yeast contributes to the fact that potassium in the soil becomes inaccessible for absorption by plants.

How to determine what peppers lack in appearance

  Peppers will successfully grow and develop only if the soil contains exactly the nutrients they need and if they are balanced. To determine the shortage or excess of chemical elements can already be on the appearance of plants. If the peppers:

1. The leaves became pale green, yellowness appeared on them, and on the plants themselves there are few flowers, which means that they lack nitrogen. Pour them with mullein solution.
2. Yellow-gray speckles appeared on the leaves, and they began to curl into a tube - calcium deficiency. Stop feeding them nitrogen and potassium.
3. The leaves turn yellow, fade and fall, and the ripening fruits are too small - this means that there is a lot of calcium in the soil. Add nitrogen to the soil.
4. Pale green leaves are deficient in nitrogen. Water the plants with urea or mullein.
5. Dark green leaves with a reddish or bluish tint - phosphorus deficiency. Add superphosphate to the soil.

Do not forget to monitor your wards and be attentive to their needs, and for this they will please you with an excellent harvest of tasty and juicy fruits.

Feeding Schemes

Fertilize bell pepper as follows:

1. In the phase of the first true leaves.
2. When the 3rd pair of leaves appears.
3. 1 week before planting in the ground.
4. 10 days after planting.
5. In the budding phase.
6. During fruiting.

These are the main stages of pepper nutrition at home. Let's consider in more detail than fertilizing peppers in different periods of vegetation.

Seedlings after a pick

Very young peppers do not need highly concentrated fertilizer, they are still enough and a weak solution. Therefore, to feed peppers after a pick, which is carried out 1 week after this procedure, use the following mixture:

• ammonia and potassium nitrate - 1 g;
• superphosphate - 3 g.

Dissolve it in 1 liter of heated water and carefully pour under each bush. Spend 2 more such stimulating dressings with an interval of 1 week, but in this case, increase the proportion of potassium to 8 g. Also, at this time, you can fertilize the culture with liquid mineral complexes or regular black tea. Take 1 tbsp. l tea leaves and fill it with 3 liters of hot water. Insist it for at least 5 days, and then proceed to watering.

How to feed pepper seedlings for growth at home

During the intensive growth of peppers, feed them 2 times each month, using synthetic industrial-made fertilizers and organics. At this time, they must be provided with a sufficient amount of nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus and potassium. For the first feeding of peppers, which is carried out in a phase of 2 leaves, use azofoska and nitroammofoska in the amount indicated in the instructions. From organic fertilizers, an aqueous solution of chicken droppings (at a concentration of 1 to 20), manure (1 to 10), and ash (1 to 50) accelerate growth well. Perform the second feeding after 2 weeks. At this time, peppers should already have 3 pairs of leaves.

What is the best way to feed peppers after planting in the ground or greenhouse

  Fertilizing during planting is the first step in fertilizing young pepper plants. Before planting seedlings, put a little wood ash in each well so that the plants take root quickly. The first feeding of pepper after planting in a permanent place should be carried out after 10-14 days have passed. Rooted seedlings need nitrogen in the first place to grow, so feed it with ammonium nitrate, mullein, bird droppings, fermented grass according to the recipes described above.

Ready-made mineral mixtures can be used:

• GUMI Kuznetsova;
• Ideal;
• Crystal;
• Sudarushka;
• Orton Micro Fe.

The following top dressing of pepper in the open ground also with an interval of 2 weeks. To feed peppers in a polycarbonate greenhouse, use the same formulations.

How to feed pepper during flowering

Potassium is the element that stimulates the formation of flowers and ovaries, so when feeding pepper already blooming, it is necessary to focus on potash fertilizers. Use carbamide as well as dry potassium. Dilute urea for feeding in 1 bucket of water (1 tsp.).

A solution of superphosphate and potassium sulfate is also suitable. Take 1 tbsp. l first fertilizer and 1 tsp. second and stir in a bucket of water. Perfectly stimulate the formation of ovaries and dry mixes:

1. Ecohuminate;
2. Summer resident.

Sprinkle them near each bush in the volume indicated on their packaging and immediately water the plants.

During the fruiting period of pepper and for the rapid ripening of fruits

Mostly bell peppers need nutrition during the fruiting period, as they spend a lot of energy on the formation and ripening of fruits. Fertilizers for peppers must also be applied in order to make the fruit ripening process faster and more uniform. Fruiting peppers require phosphorus and potassium, so to get a good harvest, feed them superphosphate along with potassium salt with an interval of 2 weeks. In August, feed the culture with mullein infusion (1 to 20).

Basic feeding rules

Some gardeners, not very sophisticated in growing peppers, believe that the more fertilizer is applied to the soil, the more abundant the crop will be. But it's not always the case. If the earth is oily, rich in humus, and the peppers growing on it develop normally, do not get sick and bear fruit well, then fertilizers do not need to be applied, because an overabundance of nutrients is as harmful as their deficiency.

Use any fertilizer for peppers in the open ground and the greenhouse only if the plants are sluggish, stunted, they have few flowers, and the fruits are small. Especially do not abuse fresh manure and bird droppings - an excess of nitrogen will cause the pepper to grow a lush green mass, and there will be very few fruits on it.

Dilute all fertilizers in heated, standing water. Cold and chlorinated is not suitable. Follow the order: first water the ground, and then apply fertilizer. After each time, loosen the soil to break the crust.

Feed the plants no more than 1 time in 10 days, but also at least 1 time per month. Alternate mineral fertilizers and top dressing peppers folk remedies.

When applying fertilizers, try not to get on the leaves, as peppers can get burned due to too concentrated solution.

In the same way, you can also feed indoor pepper on the windowsill, which is no different from Bulgarian. Feed him the same fertilizers and in the same volumes as his sweet counterparts.

Pepper is a member of the nightshade family. This plant requires regular and high-quality feeding of the substrate with mineral elements, vitamins, and trace elements. Therefore, many gardeners sooner or later face the question of what should be the top dressing of peppers in a greenhouse and how much does it differ from the peculiarities of fertilizing and folk remedies in open ground?

Spring preparation of the earth in the greenhouse

Before deciding how to feed peppers in a greenhouse, it is necessary to carefully prepare the soil for planting vegetable plants. For this, it is desirable to introduce several types of fertilizers into the soil:

It is not necessary to feed greenhouse pepper with such means. A good option will be specialized mixtures, which can be purchased at flower shops. Nevertheless, not all store nutrient solutions for substrates are suitable for peppers. Carefully study the composition of the mixture before purchasing it: if it contains chlorine in large quantities, you should not buy it, since pepper transfers this substance problematically.

From the video you will learn how, what and when to feed peppers in a greenhouse.

Basic rules for feeding peppers

If pepper is poorly fertilized, you will hardly have to expect a generous harvest. Therefore, it is very important not only to choose high-quality mixtures, but also to do all these procedures correctly. What rules are recommended to follow, first of all:

Remember, with nitrogen-type fertilizers in no case can not be overdone. If they saturate the substrate excessively, the greens will begin to develop too actively, but the ovaries on the stems of the plants will not form on time.

Organization of feeding during the season

If pepper does not grow well, it means that it lacks fertilizer. Therefore, experts recommend that farmers make nutrient mixtures from the time of planting in the soil until the harvest. However, this issue includes a number of nuances. Much depends on when and to what extent you have already fed the substrate with mineral fertilizers.

For example, if in the autumn you distributed humus or compost in the garden, and in the spring you dug up all this, adding store fertilizers, then the pepper will develop quite actively, and you will not have to feed it so often and not in such large quantities.

When to feed?

If the regularity of feeding the substrate in the garden depends on how carefully and efficiently you fed it in the autumn season, then with greenhouse peppers everything is a little different. Regularity is very important here, but also excessively frequent steps of fertilizing can significantly damage the plants. Therefore, with regard to growing pepper in a greenhouse, fertilizers are recommended to be applied no more than once every two to three weeks.

First feeding

As a rule, two weeks after planting the pepper and it is advisable to first fertilize in the greenhouse. At this time, plants are already throwing out color, so it is simply necessary to increase the intensity of development of a vegetable plant.

The best option would be to water the soil with a solution of bird droppings.  As an alternative to organic types of fertilizers, you can use superphosphate and ammonium nitrate, as well as potassium: all these substances are dissolved in water.

Second feeding

How to grow peppers in a greenhouse, than to feed, every farmer faces these issues. If for the first time you have saturated the soil with mineral components, then the second fertilizing of pepper in the greenhouse should contain nitrogen substances.

If suddenly the stems and leaves of the plants turn too green, it is necessary to somehow compensate for the presence of nitrogen in the soil. Potassium sulfate and superphosphate must be dissolved in water, and the soil should be watered with the mixture.

Foliar top dressing

Soil replenishment with mineral and organic fertilizers is mandatory for each grower. However, in addition to this, experts also recommend spraying fertilized plants from time to time.

To prepare the solution, you need to dissolve the urea in water, and then spray the product onto the vegetative system of the pepper using a spray gun. Do not forget to filter the prepared vitamin mixture.

Thus, you can slightly reduce the concentration of excipients in the stems of a vegetable crop.

Video “The first feeding of peppers after planting”

From the video you will learn how to properly shape and feed peppers.

I feed greenhouse pepper with yeast, but there are other effective remedies: you will learn about them from this article. Solanaceae family vegetables require special care, pepper is no exception, it needs vitamins and trace elements.

Those who grow crops are interested in what should be fertilizing in greenhouse conditions, how much does it differ from fertilizing in open ground. There are no special differences, follow my recommendations, and you can get a rich harvest!

Before feeding a greenhouse plant, you need to plant it correctly. Pepper makes high demands on the soil. She must be:

• loose
• fertile;
• structured;
• breathable.

The plant is comfortable in neutral soil. I advise fertilizing greenhouse soil: apply superphosphate, wood ash or compost. If you want, buy a ready-made substrate for greenhouses, but it will cost more. I note that not every soil mixture is suitable for pepper. When purchasing it, be careful, be sure to read the composition!

If there is chlorine among the microelements, turn out to be from a purchase, choose something safer. Pepper does not tolerate chlorine. A greenhouse plant needs to be fed with various means, and they should be alternated. If fertilizers are not applied at the right time, pepper is unlikely to please a good harvest.

Feeding Features

Fertilizer, regardless of its origin, must be applied once every 14 to 16 days. Most gardeners use organics and minerals that are diluted with warm water. First, pepper is watered and only then fed. Fertilizers intended for vegetables are highly concentrated.

If you make such funds, not a field plant, it will seriously suffer. After top dressing, the soil is loosened, improving its breathability. Vegetables should not receive too much nitrogen, otherwise they will begin to grow foliage, while fruiting will slow down.

If the pepper is stunted, be sure to feed it. In any case, fertilize the soil before planting seedlings. The amount of fertilizing depends on the quality of the greenhouse soil. If in the fall you fed him humus or other organics, for example, compost, you should use the purchased funds very sparingly. On average, peppers are fed every 16 to 18 days.

The first time the plant is fed 15 days after planting in the greenhouse soil. By this time, it already forms flowers. If the soil is not fertilized in the fall, apply funds based on bird droppings. Some gardeners prefer mineral compounds to organic, use superphosphate, as well as fertilizers with potassium.

The purpose of the first top dressing is to saturate the soil with microelements. Greenhouse pepper may not have enough nitrogen, fertilizers with a missing trace element are applied to complete photosynthesis of the crop.

If you have added too much nitrogen, neutralize its effect using potassium sulfate combined with superphosphate. Experienced summer residents advise foliar top dressing. The plant is sprayed with a filtered urea solution.

Soil preparation for the greenhouse

Before planting peppers on a greenhouse, you need to perform soil disinfection. You can’t wash the new greenhouse, but disinfect the previously used one with a special solution, and then dry it. I advise you to disinfect the soil with potassium permanganate. Make a pale pink solution and apply to the garden.

If the soil that you have chosen for planting peppers is too acidic, you need to add wood ash. Pepper takes root in loose soil. To improve its structure, add small sawdust or rotted manure. Experienced gardeners are advised to mulch the site when planting vegetables.

In general, greenhouse soil is no different from the one in your garden. It must be loose and fertile. In a greenhouse, it is imperative to mulch peat plantings!

Natural material is a sorbent: it gives moisture to peppers, as a result they grow better in greenhouse conditions. It is worth noting that peat contains nitrogen, which is necessary for the full growth of the crop.

Fertilize bell pepper

Photophilous culture needs fertilizers. The first time it is fed on the 16th day after landing. At this time, the formation of flowers begins. It is necessary to take care of feeding in advance: chicken droppings or mullein, soak in 7 liters of water.

Prepare a solution of chicken droppings 1 part organics in 15 parts of water. Proportions for the agent with mullein: 1 part of fertilizer per 10 parts of water. If you do not want to use organics, add minerals. Take 20 g of superphosphate and ammonium nitrate + 10 g of potassium sulfate.

Dissolve substances in 5 l of water. Fertilize under the root. Some gardeners use the so-called "green fertilizer." Here is a recipe for one of them. Grind half a bucket of weed grass (without roots), pour 100 liters of water.

Place the mixture in a large barrel, pour 300 g of wood ash on top and add 9 l of manure. Mix the organic product thoroughly and stand for 7 days. For one adult shrub, you need to spend 2 liters. Result: the plant actively grows foliage and forms a greater number of ovaries.

Further feeding

The second time, peppers are fed after 15 days. By this time, the plants form a certain number of ovaries. If you used organic products, then this time add mineral ones.

Do not forget that feeding needs to be alternated! To prepare an effective organic product, 100 g of urea, 2.5 l of chicken manure and 5 l of rotted manure are taken. This amount is designed for 50 liters of water.

Thoroughly mix the ingredients, make the finished mixture in a week: the calculation of 5 liters per 1 square. m. If the pepper lags in growth and forms fragile twigs, and the foliage becomes dark green, it is necessary to neutralize the excess nitrogen. Add 3 g of potassium sulfate and 15 g of superphosphate to 10 liters of water.

Yeast application

Peppers can be fed with yeast, which is always available. They contain:

• phosphorus;
• nitrogen;
• vitamins;
• trace elements.

If the plant will receive a yeast solution in moderate doses, the root system will get stronger. Fertilizer will protect the culture from diseases and harmful insects. When used correctly, it stimulates the microorganisms that live in the soil (they loosen the earth, improving air exchange).

Yeast products have a significant drawback: they neutralize the action of potassium, which is necessary for the full development of plants.

To restore potassium balance, it is necessary to mix yeast with wood ash (I recommend adding 15 g to the solution). Dry yeast is often used to top pepper: they take a bar and weighing 500 g and dissolve in 2.5 l of water, insist 20 hours.

The solution in its pure form is not suitable for irrigation, you need to dilute it with water in a proportion of 1:10. Yeast fertilizer is applied in the summer 2 times every three months.

Do not use an expired product, the plant may suffer and even die! It is advisable to introduce yeast in dry weather in the morning or in the evening. After feeding the greenhouse peppers, sprinkle the soil with wood ash.

As you can see, feeding peppers is easy, the main thing is to make fertilizers in the indicated dosages!
