Select containers that provide adequate depth and have drainage holes to accommodate the complex root systems of pepper plants. To ensure vigorous growth, it is best to choose containers with a minimum capacity of 5 gallons.
Preparing Soil:
Use a well-aerated potting soil that is enriched with organic matter. Peppers like slightly acidic to neutral soil. Improve fertility by incorporating compost to create a nutrient-rich environment for growth.
Sowing Pepper Seeds:
Sow the pepper seeds in the container, following the recommended spacing on the seed packet. It is essential to place the containers in a sunny location, as peppers thrive under direct sunlight.
Watering Elements:
Keep soil evenly moist, especially during the flowering and fruiting stages. Overwatering should be avoided as peppers are susceptible to root rot. Water deeply when the top inch of soil is dry.
