Peppers are planted as seedlings both in greenhouses and in the open field. When planting, it is better to follow a specific pattern in order to achieve high yields. Key recommendations:

• planting depth of seedlings - no more than 7 cm;
• distance between seedlings - 40 cm;
• the distance between the rows is 50-60 cm.

The cultivation of Golden Lapis occurs through seedlings. First of all, the seeds of the variety must be prepared.

1. Selection. At this stage, whole and undeformed seeds are left.
2. Disinfection. The seeds are soaked in special formulations for 2-3 hours. Additionally, the seed is treated with growth stimulants.

Planting seeds is carried out in mid-February, pre-preparing containers with fertile soil. It is better to plant pepper seeds in separate pots or cups so that the bushes do not interfere with each other. The maximum planting depth should not exceed 2 cm. At the end, the pepper is covered with soil and watered abundantly, and then covered with transparent material and placed in a lighted place.

Seedlings must be kept warm so that the seeds quickly take root and give the first shoots. Transplanting into a greenhouse or open ground is carried out at the end of the frost, when the soil warms up. This usually happens closer to the beginning or mid-May when planting in a greenhouse or in mid-June when choosing open ground.

After planting, you need to take care of the care of the plant.Particular attention should be paid to the following procedures.

1. Watering. Gardeners recommend watering the plant 1-3 times a week, taking into account the weather conditions and the place of planting. In drought, it is recommended to increase the frequency of watering; in the rainy season, you can temporarily forget about the need to add water to the soil if the pepper is grown in the open field. When grown in a greenhouse, the regularity of watering practically does not change.
2. Top dressing. For the first time, it will be necessary to fertilize the soil immediately before planting the seedlings. Further fertilizers are applied during flowering and fruiting. They mainly use organic and mineral complexes, but they also prefer phosphorus-potassium fertilizers. It is recommended to carefully study the instructions before use.
3. Weeding and loosening. They are usually performed after each watering, preventing the development of diseases and attacks of insects, as well as accelerating the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the roots of the plant.

You do not need to tie the peppers, but you can use wooden pegs and cotton bands if necessary.

Peppers are not particularly demanding on the choice of soil. Key recommendations:

• the site should be well lit, not subject to drafts;
• the soil must be fertile;
• groundwater should be low.

Before planting pepper, it is recommended to thoroughly fertilize the soil and loosen it to saturate it with oxygen and nutrients.

The variety has a strong immunity, copes well with the attacks of pests and diseases. However, this does not mean that the plant does not need to be protected. Gardeners recommend carrying out preventive treatments using special formulations. Before using immunity-strengthening agents, you must carefully study the instructions.
