Temperature: The most suitable temperature for the growth of rapeseed peppers is between 15 and 20 degrees; Watering: It has strict requirements on moisture, likes moisture and is intolerant of waterlogging. Therefore, water more often, but not too much each time; Fertilization: It is a fertilizer-loving plant, and it needs to be top-dressed every month, otherwise it is prone to stunted development; Light: It needs to be given a large amount of water during the seedling stage. The light needs to be shaded during the fruiting period.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Different growth periods have different temperature conditions. The suitable temperature for the development of seeds sown in spring is between 15 and 30 degrees; during the growth period, the temperature should be controlled at around 20 degrees, because the growth condition is best at this time.

2. Watering: It is not tolerant to drought or waterlogging. If the soil is in a dry state for a long time, the plant will die in less than three days; if the plant is in the soil with stagnant water for a long time, it will die for several days. After a few hours, the leaves will droop, and in severe cases, death will occur. Therefore, you must control the amount when replenishing water. Water until the soil is completely moist but no water accumulates every time. Avoid watering on rainy days. Watering frequency is once every three days.

3. Fertilization: Its growth consumes a lot of fertilizer. If the nutrients cannot keep up, the plant will develop weakly. Use thin fertilizer every time you fertilize, and water once after fertilizing. One is to allow the fertilizer to melt into the soil for easy absorption by the plants; the other is to dilute the fertilizer to avoid fertilizer damage. The frequency of fertilizing is once or twice a month.

4. Light: During the seedling stage, the demand for light is relatively large, but there is no requirement for light. It is best to accept all-day sunshine, but in the fruiting period, appropriate shade is needed. If it is too strong, the fruit will rot easily.

2. Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: It can be propagated by sowing seeds. After the climate stabilizes in spring, sow the seeds in holes and put two to three seeds in each hole. After the seedlings emerge, pull out the seedlings that are not growing well.

2. Pruning: There is only one principle for pruning it, that is, the axillary buds growing under the leaf axils should be cut off in time to avoid unnecessary consumption of nutrients.

3. Problem diagnosis

1. Insect damage: Plants are easily infected with core borers. They will eat from the inside of the fruit, spreading diseases and affecting plant health. Plants need to be sprayed with carbendazim every half month to prevent them from being infected by insect pests.

2. Disease: The yellowing of branches and leaves of the plant may be caused by a lack of fertilizer. It needs to be added with nutrients. In addition to applying root fertilizer, you can also use foliar fertilizer.

4. Other issues

1. Edible: It is edible.

2. Is it suitable for indoor cultivation: It can be grown indoors at home, because the maintenance conditions are not high, and home cultivation is possible.
