When do pepper seedlings grow?

It is best to raise seedlings in the middle and late February.

Pepper originated in Mexico and was introduced to China along the Silk Road more than 400 years ago. Pepper is rich in nutrition and unique in taste, and is widely cultivated all over China. At present, pepper is the second largest vegetable crop after Chinese cabbage.

China is the world's largest pepper producer and consumer, and also the world's largest pepper exporter, such as Qiubei Pepper, Baoji Line Pepper, Erjingtiao, Niujiaowang, Yiduhong, Sanying Pepper, Longjiao Pepper, Hainan Lantern Pepper, Shizhu Chaotianhong Pepper and Tianying Pepper.

As the saying goes, "the young plant is strong, and the harvest is half." Cultivating strong seedlings is the basis of high yield of pepper. Strong pepper seedlings will be delayed quickly after transplanting, with strong resistance to pests and diseases and high yield and quality.

About seedling raising:

Seeding can be done when the average temperature of outdoor seedling is stable above 65438 02℃. Every year during the spring equinox and solar term (March 20th), the average daily temperature in all parts of the country is stable above 10℃, so the end of March to mid-April is the best time to raise seedlings in the open field. It takes 50 ~ 70 days to raise seedlings in spring. If the seedlings are raised at the end of March, they can be transplanted and planted in the middle and late May.

If pepper is planted in a large area, it can be raised in a small arch shed, which can be carried out in the first half of February in advance, which is conducive to the early listing of pepper.
