We grow peppers. 1 pc. or 2 pieces. planted in a hole? Experiment on the site
In the past year, I conducted an experiment on the yield of pepper planted in the hole in a single copy and by 2 per hole. Variety was the same. The result was interesting.
Where to begin?
Since the autumn under a bed made warm peppers, made it branches, straw, grass clippings and other organic residues. All layers interspersed drug "Radiance", which contains bacteria, accelerating the decomposition of organic matter.
Work in the spring. Landing
Spring made wells made them compost and humus in equal parts, a handful of ashes and mixed with turf ground. Prolyl solution "fitosporin" (1 st. spoon on a bucket of water) to prevent root rot. The contents of the wells will be enough for the first time of plant development.
I placed in wells Paprika seedlings. I planted alternately. The first well of a single plant, in the second - 2 pieces of pepper. White space in pits filled nutrient Soil mixtures. And well-pressed, not buried in the ground sprouts. And once again spilled water wells.
Next, set the pegs to peppers and sprouts tie. Zamulchirovat around plants mown grass layer of 5 cm.
At the expense of mulch to retain moisture in the soil, and the roots of plants are protected against overheating. In the future, earthworms will process the grass into a useful vermicompost. During the season, the mulch layer will have to fill up.
Care
During the summer of care was to watering, fertilizing with green fertilizer, mullein and ash solution. After each watering unconsolidated radical circles.
How did the experiment?
In August, it was time to harvest. I took two baskets of peppers collection. First of all, to count how many peppers grown on two plants that have evolved in the same hole. And these holes there were 5. It receives from 8 to 12 fruits of the two bushes.
Next tore peppers with individual plants, they too turned 5 pieces (bushes). With one bush collected from 12 to 14 fruits. And peppers were much larger than those with twin bushes.
Thus, the harvest was a success with the plants that grew on one piece per well. Now I will put only one pepper into the hole.
Perhaps the competition was between plants, so nothing good happened.
