FAQs

Why are my capsicum buds dropping before turning into fruit?
It may be due to heat stress, sudden watering changes, or lack of nutrients. Maintain consistent moisture and apply Potash (SOP) during flowering.

Why are my capsicums small and thin-walled?
Poor nutrition or small containers often cause this. Use 12-inch pots and feed NPK 20-20-20 every two weeks.

Why are my peppers staying green and not turning yellow?
Yellow capsicums take time to ripen. Keep them on the plant until they fully mature in the sun. Pick when the fruit turns fully yellow. It usually starts green and ripens with time.
