The yellow fruits are versatile in use. Taking care of the plant and planting seedlings follows the same principle as other types of varieties: they need the same amount of fertilizing, watering and growing conditions.
Landing features
We plant seedlings
Bull pepper should be grown by seedling. Planting seeds to obtain seedlings is carried out at the beginning of March (if the cultivation of fruits will take place in the open field). If the goal is to grow a crop in a greenhouse, you can plant seeds in early February. In advance, the seeds are treated with a solution of manganese or aloe in order to disinfect them from bacteria and increase their germination.
The variety has a high level of sensitivity to the acid-base balance of the soil. To normalize the level of acidity and salts in the soil, you need to add a small amount of lime in advance. The optimum level is 15 g per 1.5 kg of soil.
Picking
If the seeds have not been planted in separate containers, picking is carried out after 40 days. During this procedure, a substance is introduced into the root system that accelerates growth. This is done so that the bushes develop faster and gain the required height.
Hardening
You also need to carry out hardening activities daily: every day, take the seedlings out into the open air for just a few hours. This will allow the seedlings to withstand stressful situations and prevent them from dying from sudden changes in air temperature.
Disembarkation to a permanent place
Peppers of the Bull variety are transplanted to a permanent place of cultivation in early May. When planting, they adhere to the 50 x 50 cm scheme. After planting, they immediately get rid of the lateral shoots and remove all the lower leaves. This is done so that the bush develops evenly.
Garter
The variety has heavy fruits and tall bushes, so it is important to tie them up. For this, special supports and trellises are used. Do not allow the stems to break off, otherwise the yield will significantly decrease.
Care rules
Watering is carried out in the morning and only with warm water. This allows you to maintain the correct development of the bush and root system, because cold water can lead to rotting of the root system. The sun's rays, together with moisture, create a dry film around the soil and allow oxygen to penetrate into the soil.
Top dressing
In order for the yield to be high, top dressing should be carried out on time. During the growing season, fertilize three times. Each top dressing involves the use of a certain solution, but they have one thing in common: at least 1 liter must be poured into each bush.
- The first feeding is carried out 14 days after planting the seedlings in a permanent place. To prepare a solution in 10 liters of warm, dilute 2 tbsp. l. superphosphate.
- The second feeding is carried out when flowers begin to form. To prepare the solution, you will need 10 liters of water, 2 tbsp. urea and 2 tbsp. potassium phosphate.
- The third feeding is carried out during the formation of the fetus. In 10 liters of warm water, dilute 3 tbsp. potassium salt, 1.5 liters of the prepared liquid are poured into each bush.
Diseases and parasites
This type of pepper has a high resistance to tobacco mosaic and late blight.
As a preventive measure, you should only regularly inspect the bushes for various symptoms in order to detect any problems with the harvest in time.
