The first feeding is carried out between 10 and 14 days after transplanting the seedlings into the ground. The root system of young plants is not yet fully developed, so they cannot fully absorb nutrients from the soil. The main goal of the first fertilization is to activate the soil microflora and promote the growth of the root system.
One of the fertilizer options at this stage is grass tea compost. To prepare it, freshly cut grass is taken and placed in a large bag. The top of the bag is pierced and left in the shade for 3-5 days to ferment. After that, the resulting herbal dough is filled with 1/3 of the cube and filled with water, stirring well. The recommended dosage is 700 ml per plant. After 2 weeks, fertilization should be repeated.
Between these feedings, you can also add dried wood ash: sprinkle a small handful around the bushes and then pour water over it.
In addition, peppers can be fed with regular fermentation of the grass. This will activate the microflora in the soil and provide the peppers with the necessary nutrition.
Bread infusion is also great for feeding peppers. To prepare it, fill a bucket 1/3 full with the remaining bread, then pour it with water and leave it in the greenhouse for 2-3 days.
Then everything is mixed well and to water the infusion it must be diluted with water in the ratio 1:10. When this solution is added to the soil by irrigation, it feeds the soil bacteria and fungi, which leads to a significant improvement in the soil structure and pepper nutrition.
