I feel like the green pepper plants are growing slowly, is that right? The sweet pepper fruits seem to be not getting much bigger, and there are many small leaves growing at the top.
Green peppers usually grow well at around 20-30°C (68-86 °F), but when it gets too hot, their growth can stop.
Since sweet peppers are summer vegetables, they are thought to be resistant to heat, but there are still limits, right? Could the intense heat be related?
Yes, that might also be a factor.
If you’re worried about dryness and lack of water due to the heat, it’s a good idea to water the edges of the bed.
Oh, I see.
Eggplants, for example, tend to become “rocky" when they lack water.
“Rocky eggplant" refers to eggplants that have fruit without pollination. They don’t grow large and are hard and bitter, so they are not suitable for eating.
I understand.
I’d like to try watering around the edges of the beds as I was taught.
I’ll also pull out the weeds while I’m at it. If you leave the weeds alone, they’ll grow before you know it, so it’s best to take care of them when you notice.
