How to plant chili peppers to achieve high yields: methods and techniques for chili pepper cultivation.

How to plant chili peppers to achieve high yieldsToday's introduction on how to plant chili peppers to achieve high yields and the experience related to the methods and techniques of chili pepper cultivation, the editor will introduce to netizens next.Chili peppers can also be grown without soil, we use planting bags for cultivation, and have planted a row against the back wall of the greenhouse. Now the chili peppers are growing very well, with developed roots and rapid growth. Many friends ask, what are the advantages of bag cultivation of chili peppers? How to grow chili peppers on a large scale using bags?The planting bags are easy to move, allowing the use of empty spaces within the greenhouse. For example, the back wall position of the warm greenhouse, if using soil or planting troughs, can only be fixed in that place, and it is necessary to consider the drip irrigation system, which can be more troublesome to plant. Bag cultivation is more flexible, making it possible to utilize these areas, and can be watered and fertilized using drop arrows. Chili pepper leaves are small, occupy less space, and can receive sunlight in winter, so planting a batch of chili peppers against the back wall can also increase the utilization rate of the greenhouse and increase planting income.This is also an advantage of bag cultivation, as the bags can be moved. If a plant in a bag develops a disease during cultivation, that bag can be moved away to prevent the spread of the disease to other plants, effectively controlling the occurrence of the disease on a large scale. Moreover, the cost of planting bags is relatively low, cheaper than building planting troughs, and can be reused for three to four years, making them durable.When chili peppers are planted in bags, new roots can usually be seen within five to six days. The substrate in the planting bags has good breathability and sufficient oxygen content, which is conducive to root growth. As long as the roots of chili peppers grow well, it can prevent early senility and can be cultivated for a long period, achieving continuous harvest.It is also simple to grow chili peppers in bags within a greenhouse, with about 1,500 seedlings planted per mu, one seedling per bag, and 1,500 bags used per mu. Different chili pepper varieties require different planting distances, and when using planting bags, we plant according to the required number of plants per mu and the spacing.Bag cultivation of soilless chili peppers, using drip tapes or drop arrows to supply nutrient solutions, each has its advantages. Drip tapes are cheaper and easier to install, but when using them on bags, attention should be paid to the spacing between bags, with a hole spacing of 18-20 centimeters, ensuring that the drip holes are inside the planting bags for effective irrigation.Drop arrows are more suitable for use on planting bags, with the drip head inserted around the roots, delivering the nutrient solution directly to the roots, providing more accurate irrigation, and preventing the nutrient solution from dripping outside the planting bags. Therefore, it can be said that drop arrows are more suitable for bag cultivation, and they can be reused without tilling for the next crop, although they are more expensive than drip tapes.Water and fertilizer management in bag cultivation of chili peppers is also simple, maintaining the substrate moisture at 60-80%, and watering thoroughly when the water holding capacity is low, until water flows out of the bottom of the planting bags, with an EC of 2-2.5, which can be adjusted based on the growth stage and water source.The above is all the content on how to plant chili peppers to achieve high yields and the methods and techniques of chili pepper cultivation, which chili pepper enthusiasts may consider for reference.
