    Sweet pepper seeds are coated with a thick layer of essential oils that can inhibit germination. Contrasting “baths” help improve their germination ability.
    Water is poured into 2 glasses: in one - hot, at a temperature of 80-90 degrees, in the other - almost ice, left in the refrigerator for the night. In these vessels, seeds wrapped in a piece of tissue are alternately lowered for 3 seconds. In total, 3 cycles of such "hardening" are required.

    After this procedure, in the same rag sprinkled with water, the seeds are left for two days - until they are bite. As soon as this happens, they are laid out in a seedling box with an interval of 1-1,5 cm. The same distance is maintained between the rows.
    Seeds are sprayed with a solution of the root stimulant, and then with clean water and lightly sprinkled with loose soil. The seedlings should be tightened with plastic wrap and put in a bright place, illuminating with artificial sources to extend the daylight hours to 14-15 hours.

    Usually the seeds are sown for 65-75 days before the planned transplanting of the seedlings into the ground. Seeds for disinfection are pre-soaked for a day in a dark pink solution of potassium permanganate. Aloe juice is very effective, possessing both bactericidal and stimulating properties. Cut the bottom (old) sheet for two days stand in the refrigerator, then its juice is diluted with water 1: 1 and soak seeds in it.
    (Prepared seeds are buried at 1,5-2 cm, that is, approximately the length of the phalanx of the finger.) The soil is kept slightly moistened, but not wet, after emergence, they are only sprayed but not watered.
    Dive (transplant into a large container) is made after the disclosure of the 2-th present sheet. Do this very carefully, so as not to damage the roots. When transplanting, try not to bury the root collar.

    A place for seedlings is chosen well-lit, but closed from drafts. If this is a windowsill, then the bottom edge of the frame is additionally insulated or a foam sheet is laid between the frame and the pots. The best mode for seedling development: 21 -23 ° - during the day and 16-18 ° - at night. Both overheating and overcooling are harmful.
    Pepper requires a lot of moisture, but does not tolerate water stagnation. Watering the room temperature with water at a standstill is carried out once in 5-6 days, while wetting the earthen lump entirely.
    The first top dressing is carried out 2 weeks after the dive, then repeat every 2 weeks. If the seedlings have grown too fast, then the number of top dressings is reduced. The composition of the nutrient solution: 1 g of water - 1 g of ammonium nitrate, 6 g of superphosphate, 2 g of potash fertilizers.

    Peppers have a fragile root system and react painfully to its damage during transplantation. Therefore, seedlings should not be grown in one large container, where the roots of plants intertwine, and in individual pots.
    To germinate seeds, peat-tablets or small cells can be used, where seeds are sown one at a time. Good containers for the first time will be small cups from under yogurt. In their bottoms, it is necessary to make a few nuts for the drain of water.
    Then each plant is transplanted into a pot with a volume of at least 0,5 l. It is very convenient to use liter terapakovskie packets from under juices and dairy products: they are strong enough, they have a convenient rectangular shape, a suitable volume. When it comes time to plant seedlings in the ground, the package is simply cut with scissors and extracted with an earth lump entirely, without damaging the roots. In the lower part of the bag, several holes are made to drain the water. At the bottom pour a handful of large line for drainage. You can add a little eggshell to it.

    i Hurry NU him!
    I'm not in a hurry to plant seedlings of cucumbers, watermelons and melons, because their seedlings are younger by the time they land - the better they get accustomed. Therefore, I sow the seeds of pumpkin seedlings not before mid-April. Also in April I sow a glass of corn and corn asparagus in order to get their harvest early.

    The main thing is the soil
    For pepper, the ground must be loose, light and breathable, albeit not very greasy. And the seedling does not like pepper, when it is constantly rearranged from place to place, pinching or tearing off leaves. Peppers are big sissies

    Densely and amicably
    I noticed that cabbage seedlings are not afraid of crowding, so that it is possible to sow in a tray densely, and even when planting on a bed, the distance between plants should be at least 30 cm.

    Let's try humidity
    For seedlings, the optimum humidity is 60-80%, which is rare in a heated room. The cheapest and most effective way to increase air humidity is to moisten the curtains. He hung up the old ones and, regularly spraying water from them with a spray gun, determined with a hygrometer that the moisture level had increased by 10-15%.

    So that the pepper seedling is not stretched, I put a foil screen next to it.
    Also, additional lighting will not hurt either: above the boxes at the adjustable height of the tripod I attach a fluorescent lamp with a reflector.
    As the seedlings grow, I lift the lamp, keeping the distance from the lamp to the tops of plants 20-25, see.
    I turn on the lamp every day for a while in the morning and evening with the expectation that the light day for seedlings lasted 16 hours.
    And under the boxes with seedlings of pepper I put foam plastic from such warming in plants on a cold window sill the root system develops better.
    In the phase of two real leaflets I feed on the instructions with the Baikal EM-1 preparation.

    7 tips for pepper lovers
    It seems that for heat-loving sweet peppers in the greenhouse - the optimal microclimate, so they do not need much care there. However, this is not quite true.
    Peppers are truly a thermophilic culture. If the temperature in the greenhouse is below + 18 °, they simply stop growing and can only recover when warming. Therefore, I do not allow a drop in temperature and always close the greenhouse at night.
    In the afternoon, the structure must be ventilated, since the peppers do not tolerate condensation. This can weaken them, cause various diseases.
    I am attentive to the composition of the soil in the greenhouse. Once in 2-3 years, no matter how troublesome it may be, replace the top layer with the thickness of 20 cm for a new one.
    Peppers have a shallow root system, so they need sufficient watering. If rain helps in the open ground, then in closed water one should not forget about regular watering, and only with warm water.
    Some varieties require pollination by bees, so during flowering you need to spray plants with sweet water. I do this early in the morning so as not to cause sunburn.
    If the fruit is badly tied, I spray the plants once with the stimulant of fruit formation, I watch that the temperature does not rise above 30 °, otherwise the pollen will be sterile.
    Twice a month I do organic-mineral top dressing and once - foliar, microelements.

    When growing pepper, I adhere to the principle: it is better to underfeed than overfeed. I feed it only when it develops slowly or hard to take root in a new place. In these cases, 10 days after disembarkation, I introduce a solution of urea (a matchbox on 10 L of water).
    After each removal of fruits, I fertilize the pepper with organic: for 5-7 days I fill the manure with the water (1: 1), I plant 1: 10 and water.
