After this, the procedure of hardening of the grains is carried out, for this they are placed in a non-concentrated solution of potassium permanganate for ten minutes. Then the seeds are wrapped in wet gauze and allowed to swell well.

1. Planting seeds is recommended in small peat pots. Too deepen them into the soil is not worth it, as the pepper root system is developing quite slowly.
2. After the appearance of the first three true leaves, seedlings are picked into separate containers. In the same period, seedlings are fed urea or ammonium nitrate.
3. Many novice gardeners make a common mistake when growing seedlings. The mistake is that gardeners begin to grow seedlings too early when the daylight hours are too short and there is not enough additional lighting. Seedlings grown under such conditions are extremely frail; in the future, plants will not bring the proper harvest.

Growing seedlings of bell pepper begin, as a rule, 65 days before the expected moment of planting it in open ground. Before planting the plants, the wells must be abundantly watered.

3. When growing this culture in greenhouse conditions, it is necessary to arrange regular ventilation, make sure that the ambient temperature does not exceed 35 degrees, otherwise the pollen of the pepper becomes sterile and pollination does not occur.
