“There is a large amount of fruit curling in spring pods. How can we ensure that chillies will not come out of the lingering fruit?” In a recent interview with reporters at Datian Town, Shouguang City, many vegetable farmers asked this question. The vegetable farmer Gong Zhichang of Beitun Village has a set of pepper management. The peppers in his shed have almost no cracks. How did he manage it?
“The effect of pepper curls on prices is relatively large. Therefore, how to make peppers out of fruit cracks has become an important part of increasing the income of vegetable growers. Through the management of peppers in the past few years, I believe that peppers will not generally Out of the curve." Master Gong told reporters. Then, what are the four points that Master Gong said?
First of all, it is best not to leave the peppers in the spring and spring peppers. Because the main stalk of pepper is shorter and the pepper is close to the ground, in the process of growth, due to the obstruction of the ground, it is easy to bend. Moreover, leaving the door pepper is not conducive to pepper hair growth, slow growth, low yield.
Second, we must control the temperature. If the peppers do not produce fruit, the temperature of the peppers must be controlled during the flowering period. Generally, it is appropriate to use 25-28°C. Many vegetable farmers believe that the high flowering temperature is not conducive to their fruit set. During the flowering period, the temperature in the greenhouse during the daytime is often controlled below 25°C, causing slow growth of the pepper plants, poor flower bud differentiation and more fruit curls.
The next step is to scientifically apply water and fertilizer. Many vegetable farmers believe that watering during fruit setting will cause peppers to grow long and affect their fruit setting, so they do not water during flowering and fruit setting. Although this will increase the fruit setting rate to a certain extent, the chance of fruit curling will increase greatly. I think that it is necessary to supplement the moisture before the flowering of the peppers, but it is necessary to pay attention to the light pouring of the small water and top-dressing with water to ensure that there is enough nutrients to supply the fruit continuously.
In addition, in the fruit period, we must also spray fertilizer on the leaves to provide timely nutrition. Foliar fertilizer absorption is fast and the utilization rate is high. During the fruitful period of blooming flowers, the flower buds and fruit development can be promoted through foliar supplemental nutrition (foliar spray of leaf fertilizer containing zinc, iron, and boron). However, we must pay attention to leaf fertilizer must be fully dissolved and then mixed with water, so as not to dissolve unevenly, there will be fertilizer damage after burning leaves.
