VIDEO: 4 Ways to Speed Up Pepper Growth & Fruiting
Growing peppers can be frustrating with how slow they grow. In this episode I will give you 4 ways to increase the growth of pepper plants and speed up fruiting.
Oh, good to know that those night temperatures aren't good. I live in The Netherlands and it is normal to have 15 celsius at night here even during summer (most of the time).
How often should you water during August in North Texas? I water my bell pepper plants every morning and I am getting a decent amount of peppers. 2-3 a week from one plant. Am I over watering?
I love In Arkansas. We have weeks of 95 degrees and above. We water everyday. Is that too much?? My spicy pepper plants do okay but my green peppers are not producing
My pepper plants leaf all dropped what can I do?
I live in a place in Canada where 30°c is rare should I grow them indoors
Edit: i know you said they would survive and grow but would they grow better inside they are capsaicin Chinese
I've had my best luck (MI also) with peppers in pots and potting soil. In a raised bed, super meh. In pots, they produced more peppers than I knew what to do with. All I did was keep them watered.
Which pepper plant will give one pepper in a year?
Doesn’t nitrogen also attract aphids?
Okay, so. (Here is the earth…) I'm in Tulsa and we have heavy clay soil. I do composting and some soil amendment, but right now, in the summer, i can't skip more than a day of watering for my potted plants and tomatoes. I aim for deep watering, where I hold the sprayer at one spot and count to 15, but I'm wondering if there's any chance i could get away with watering peppers weekly here?? Or if the soil composition and July/Aug temperatures (often 90s-100+ with relative humidity >60%) just doesn't lend itself to that. Thanks!
Interesting seeing this, just today we pulled the capsicums out of our makeshift greenhouse as we overwintered them, temps are finally rising and nights are now starting to be above 10C. Curious to see how it will affect fruit production.
I have that problem with my squash plants only producing male blooms. Any advice for that?
I needed to view this video a few weeks ago. I decided to try Bell Pepper plants this year, my first two plants didn't grown, then eaten alive by a bug. I had purchased two additional pepper plants, both have fruit on them but very little growth. So I will immediately pick the peppers to see if the fertilizer and but repellent will allow new growth and new fruit! Great information Thank YOU!!!
THey look thirsty!!!
Dude I'm in Central TX. Watering peppers (any produce) plants every other week to two weeks will totally kill everything you're growing in 3-5 days. It's about to be September at 2am and it's 90°. That watering advice is not realistic here even when we get heavy rain we still have to water at least every other day if not eveyday.
Your peppers aren't growing or fruiting because they need watering more regularly and you may want to put some straw mulch all over the surface of your bed soil to help retain moisture.
Peppers are one of the few plants I have had success with during the summer here in central Florida. But I do find them to be slow growing so this info will be put to good use. Thank you.
Good tips! Thanks. I am in Melbourne Australia. I managed to keep a capsicum plant (with small capsicums – variety named Wings) in a container fruiting over the winter, even though we are a cool temperate climate here. This morning I cut it back by half and repotted it as it's early spring and it was starting to produce new growth, so hopefully, it will keep going and I will get early fruits. The root ball looked very healthy. Anyway, some of you in the northern hemisphere might want to try this approach. At the end of autumn, I placed the container under a roofed patio, facing the north (in northern hemisphere this would mean facing your plants towards the south). The fruits that were produced over winter were very tasty and sweet.
Amazed to hear you water once every 2 wks. I'm in a super hot dry climate and water with drip irrigation for 25 min. every day. Wondering if I should change it up and water less often but for a longer time so that the water does deepr.
Hahahahaha, you speak nice but your garden look like the Sahara desert.
too much talking
Learn metric system, and use it!
