    At the 2:50 mark, you're not picking up that you've lost 2 inches of moisture there. If you plant a good cover crop mix, you'll build soil and retain moisture. Not to mention have another harvest and source for compost.

    Good video. Do you use fans while they grow from seed so there plant stem gets bigger and harder (it can strengthen your plants) that what the wind does outside. It’s good to do it early I heard.

    • @ucscagroecology

      At the UC Santa Cruz Farm & Garden we make sure to "harden off" all plants before planting them in the ground. This means we take them out of the greenhouse and let them acclimate to conditions outside the controlled greenhouse environment. Seedlings should experience full exposure to day/night temperature fluctuations to help build carbohydrate reserves, and full exposure to the wind and sun to strengthen cell walls and enhance tolerance to future extremes in growing conditions.

    I thought it was Bush pepper which is a variety of BLACK PEPPER CORN , which has no vein but small bush like growth needing no support to climb.
    The word PEPPER confused me , with Capsicum or Bell pepper which is a type of CHILLI.

    Crop plants maintain a "rhizosphere", or a concentrated area of microbial activity close to the root. The rhizosphere is the most active part of the soil ecosystem because it is where the most readily available food is, and where peak nutrient and water cycling occurs. Microbial food is exuded by crop roots to attract and feed microbes that in turn provide nutrients (and other compounds) to the plant at the root-soil interface where the plants can take them up. Since living roots provide the easiest source of food for soil microbes, growing long lived roots that feed the foundation species of the soil food web as much as possible during the growing season should be a goal of farmers seeking a productive and profitable crop.
    Roots associated with SWRT membranes have been shown to last all season long, contributing greatly to the improvement of soil quality because they have the nutrients and moisture they need.

    Is it necessary to mow down the crops? aside from cover cropping, aren't the peppers going to produce another set of fruit?

    • @ucscagroecology
      @ucscagroecology  3 роки тому +1

      Chili pepper plants are perennial in their native environments, but their longevity is climate dependent when grown in other environments. They generally go dormant in cold weather so in many cases it makes more economical sense for growers to remove the plants when this happens in order to utilize the space for growing cold weather crops.

    • @ucscagroecology
      @ucscagroecology  2 роки тому +1

      At the UC Santa Cruz Farm & Garden we use compost and cover crops before planting to promote soil fertility. You can also provide supplemental fertility in the form of liquid or granular fertilizer after planting. You can learn more about peppers including supplemental fertility here: agroecology.ucsc.edu/resources/publications/grower-guides/pdf-downloads/peppers.pdf

    • @ucscagroecology
      @ucscagroecology  6 років тому +4

      Hi and apologies for the slow reply! If you go to the section of our website where the Organic Grower Guides are posted (casfs.ucsc.edu/about/publications/grower-guides/grower-guides-pdfs.html) you'll find the guide on pepper production, which discusses fertility approaches; in essence, we incorporate a legume/cereal cover crop and may in addition use 5-7 tons/acre of a high quality compost, depending on current soil nitrate levels. If supplemental fertility is required following initial crown set (again, check soil nitrate levels), options include liquid fertility applied through the drip lines, and banding of dry, pelleted, granular organic formulations into the soil close to the plants. However, it is more effective to incorporate fertilizer ahead of planting. Hope this is helpful!

    I would suggest a second video geared toward the casual, not commercial, gardener. Most people just have a tiller, not a tractor with several attachments. Also most casual gardeners don't soil test or do cover crops so prepping the soil prior to transplanting to ensure soil has enough calcium and nutrients would be good to explain. Also, during the growing season the rate of watering and fertilizing can be tricky so that would be good to know as well.
