Ornamental pepper cultivation techniques
Ornamental pepper is one of the genus of the genus Capsicum. It is classified according to the color of the fruit, and includes red, yellow, purple, orange, black, white, and green types; it is divided into the shape of a fruit, which is wire-shaped, horn-shaped, cherry-shaped, and bell-shaped. , snake-shaped, date-shaped, refers to the shape of the sky and other types. The following describes three better breed types. Variety characteristics 1. Capsicum plant height 15 ~ 35cm, development degree 45 ~ 60cm. Small fruit-shaped, long cone-shaped fruit, approximately triangular, with the top of the fruit facing upwards. Fruit length 2.5cm or so, fruit width 1.6cm or so, fruit weight 2 ~ 10g, spicy taste, strong fruit set, results in many. The same fruit can be milk white, light yellow, orange yellow, red four kinds of colors at the same time, have high ornamental value. 2. Millet grain pepper plant height of about 20cm, branching, beautiful plant shape, the results of many, the fruit was long oblate, fruit, such as rice size, young milky white. The fruit diameter is about 0.5cm, the single fruit weight is 5g, the taste is hot, the top of the fruit is upward, and the fruit has white, purple, red and other changes during the growth process. White flowers, dark green leaves, small. Easy to cultivate and manage, long fruit period, because of the small plant type, is one of the best pepper varieties for family pot viewing. 3. Refers to the day plant height 60 ~ 90cm, development degree 70 ~ 100cm. Strong roots, erect stems, and generally bifurcated branches. The fruit is conical and grows upright. It grows 2.5-3.5cm in length and 0.7-0.9cm in diameter. The young fruit is blue and ripe red or yellow. Seeding until the early harvest of about 90 days, harvest and viewing period of up to 7 to 8 months, strong branching, the results of many drought-resistant, heat-resistant, pest-resistant ability, moderate cold resistance. In addition to the above three kinds, there are also snake-shaped peppers with fruit curls such as small snakes, cherry red peppers with bright red fruits and cherries, and black and purple black finger-tip peppers with tender fruit. The size and shape of the fruits resembles fresh fruits. Jujube-like dates and other peppers. Cultivation techniques for ornamental peppers can be cultivated in open or potted plants. 1. Seed nursery according to the viewing time reasonable scheduling sowing. Seed treatment before seedling, first put the seeds into the warm water of 55 °C stirring, until 35 °C to stop, and then soaked with 10% trisodium phosphate solution for 20 minutes after the rinse, and then soaking at room temperature 8 to 12 hours after the 28 ~ Germination under 30°C, usually 2 to 3 days after 80% germs can be sowed. The emergence temperature should be controlled at 25 ~ 30 °C, after the emergence of the temperature should be maintained at 25 ~ 26 °C, and appropriate control of water, prevent seedlings leggy, seedling stage with 2g/kg urea + 3g/kg potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution foliar spray fertilizer. When the seedlings grow to 17 to 20 cm and have 6 to 8 true leaves, they are transplanted and colonized. When using open cultivation, high-quality farmyard fertilizer 15000kg/hm2, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium ternary compound fertilizer 300kg/hm2 evenly spread on the surface, deep-deep 25 ~ 30cm, leveling after the fine ridge from the height of 40cm, in the ridge Cover the mulch, set the plant from 30 to 40cm. When potted plants were used, pots with a size of 30 cm and 40 cm were selected and filled with a mixture of vegetable garden soil and organic fertilizer. One plant per pot was planted. 2. After the planting management, on the basis of supplying the plantar fertilizer and the bottom water, reasonable irrigation and irrigation. After the seedlings are irrigated, they are flooded once, and the flowering results are irrigated once, and the top dressing is applied. After 10 to 15 days, the top-dressing fertilizer is combined with irrigation, and the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium ternary compound fertilizer is applied at 300 to 375 kg/hm2 each time. In order to avoid raining during rainy days, do not fill at low temperatures and not at noon. After the irrigation, the soil is prevented from lodging. When using potted plants, water and fertilizer management is strengthened when the flowering results are obtained, and other management is consistent with open field cultivation. Ornamental peppers are generally seen as ornamental, but they can also be eaten. They can be harvested based on their needs. 3. Diseases and Insect Pests Prevention The main diseases of ornamental pepper are disease, virus disease and powdery mildew. Reducing irrigation in hot weather can reduce the incidence of epidemic disease. After onset, it can be treated with 25% metalaxyl WP 500 times or 72% wet mildew WP 1000 times. Prevention of viral diseases First, we must control aphids, and second, we must promptly spray after the onset of disease. We can use 1.5% of plant disease and Ling EC 1000 times or 20% of virus A WP 500 times spray control. Powdery mildew is a disease that has emerged in recent years. It is generally treated with 15% triadimefon 1000 times spray. Ornamental pepper insect pests include aphids and aphids, and the key to prevention and control is to find out as soon as possible, and to prevent and cure pesticides in time. When household insects are observed in ornamental plants, insecticides can be directly sprayed with household insecticide aerosols.
