9. Pest & Disease Control
Spray neem oil solution (5 ml neem oil + 1 liter water + few drops of liquid soap) every 7–10 days to deter pests.
Watch for aphids, whiteflies, and mealybugs—remove them manually or with a mild soap spray.
Avoid overcrowding and wetting leaves to prevent fungal diseases.
10. Harvesting for Continuous Yield
Pick pods when they are 3–4 inches long and still tender (older pods become woody).
Harvest every 2–3 days to encourage more production.
Use clean scissors to avoid damaging the plant.
Bonus Tip for More Flowers & Pods
Mix 1 tsp Epsom salt in 1 liter water and spray every 15 days—the magnesium boosts flowering and pod formation.
