After care of Capsicum Plants
After the seedlings get well established in the main field, mulching is done with biodegrad-
able materials in order to retain soil moisture and to avoid moisture stress at the root zone.
Capsicum plants have a bidirectional root development; therefore root zone should never be
disturbed while plants are growing. If root zones of growing capsicum plants are disturbed,
it may cause blossom-end rot of the plants. Weeding is a mandatory cultural practice and
manual weeding is recommended in India as manpower is cheap here. Chemical weed con-
trol may also be practiced alternatively.
