How to grow peanuts (pegging), Fertilization for eggplant and pepper (fertilizing for the 4th time)

How do you grow a peanut plant, eggplants, and sweet pepper in field cultivation. (Farming practices for peanuts, eggplants, and green peppers.) Peanuts were planted in early June, and it’s been about two months. I’d like to check their growth and see how they’re doing.

The peanut leaves reached the adjacent plot, so I cut half of the mulch in the neighboring plot to expand the peanut cultivation space. (The peanut’s pegs penetrate the soil, so it’s better not to use mulch.)

This is a peanut peg. After blooming above ground, peanuts go underground to develop nuts. It’s amazing how peanuts are such mysterious plants, isn’t it?

Taking care of eggplants and green peppers. Applying fertilizer. Eggplants and green peppers have passed about 25 days since the last fertilization. This is the fourth time.

For fertilizing eggplant, apply 30cc (1 oz) of chicken manure in 2 spots, about 20cm (8 inches) away from the base of the plant.

What happens if peanut harvesting is delayed?

As peanuts ripen, the pods at the end of the pegs come off easily. If harvesting is delayed, some peanuts may fall off and stay in the soil, making them hard to find. For the best taste, it’s best to harvest peanuts at the right time (about 80–90 days after flowering), so don’t wait too long to pick them.
