once a week

Answer 1

my peppers have ben growing for four years every season I'm giving them away because I have to many.I water well once a week, summer up to three times.but if they are in pots I suggest check it twice a week, you don't want it to be wet when you go to water it because they like to be on the dry side before you water. feed once a month or up to three month .depending on the fertilizer.you also don't need to feed it during the winter months.you resume feeding when its in the 70-80's (note)read your plant food instructions carefuly to much can burn your root system. hope I've helped

Answer 2

I work compost into my vegetable garden before planting, and sidedress with fertilizer midseason. Once plants are established (after a week or two) I never water. Plant roots will go deep in search of moisture, which is what you want. In fact, I don't know of anyone here in Maine who waters their vegetable garden. We let Mother Nature take care of that!

Answer 3

relies upon on the climate if this is too warm 2 cases an afternoon one early interior the morning and the different overdue interior the afternoon. Fertilize only once you be conscious that flowers are form of diminished or stick to the educational of the fertilizer equipment on while to fertilize.

Answer 4

Water when the top inch of soil is dry.

Fertilize twice a month with a liquid fert like Miracle Grow. I like osmocote fertilizer. It lasts four months so you would basically fert once in the plant's lifetime.
