The 3rd fertilizing sweet pepper and 2nd fertilizing of ginger (Grow sweet pepper and ginger root)
How to grow sweet pepper and ginger root in the ground cultivation. Our goal for today is to manage the cultivation of sweet pepper plant and ginger root. We’re fertilizing the sweet pepper and ginger root today. Let’s start with fertilizing the sweet peppers.
The third fertilization for the sweet pepper (Fertilizing pepper plant)
It’s been about 25 days since the last fertilization for the sweet pepper. The sweet pepper has quite a few fruits and has been harvested multiple times, so I’d like to fertilize pepper again to replenish nutrients. (This is the third fertilization for the sweet pepper.)
The second fertilization for the sweet pepper was in mid-June.
https://www.vege-try.net/en/additional-fertilizer-for-eggpla...For sweet pepper, fertilize in 2 spots about 20cm (8 inches) away from the base of the plant. If fertilizer directly touches the roots of sweet peppers, they may get damaged, so we keep the fertilizing position away from the base of the sweet pepper plant.
We use chicken manure (organic fertilizer) for sweet pepper fertilization. Chicken manure contains essential nutrients for sweet pepper growth in a balanced manner. (Best organic fertilizer for sweet pepper.) The amount of fertilizer is 30g (1 oz) per spot.
Turn over the mulch, dig a hole about 10cm (4 inches) deep, and apply fertilizing.
After that, water the chicken manure that has been fertilized, cover it with soil, and put back the mulch. With this, the sweet pepper fertilization work is complete.
The 2nd fertilization for the ginger root (Ginger plant care)
Next is fertilizing the ginger root. It has been about 25 days since the last fertilization. This will be the second fertilization.
For ginger root, fertilize once between the plants. Put 30g (1 oz) of chicken manure.
Ginger root is fertilized by making cut in the mulch and applying the fertilizer there.
Insert the trowel about 10cm (4 inches) into the cut and place chicken manure in the widened gap.
Afterward, water the chicken manure, cover it with soil. With this, the ginger root fertilization is complete.

When is the harvest time for ginger? (When is ginger root plant ready to be harvested?)
The harvest time for ginger root plant is from early to mid-October. Ginger root is available all year, so it’s hard to know when its season is, but the harvest time is in the fall. You can tell when it’s time to harvest by looking at the leaves. Around October, when the leaves start turning yellow and drying out, it’s time to harvest.
