Orange Capsicum Grow Box - Everything You Need to Grow Delicious Bell Peppers

Growing orange capsicum (bell pepper) from seeds in a plastic pot is an enjoyable process. Here's a step-by-step guide using the provided materials:
1. Prepare the Pot: 
- Fill the pot with the ready-to-use potting mix, leaving some space at the top for watering.

2. Sow the Seeds: 
- Plant the orange capsicum seeds in the potting mix according to the depth and spacing instructions on the seed packet.
- Cover the seeds with a thin layer of potting mix and gently press them down.

3. Watering: 
- Water the potting mix thoroughly after planting to ensure the seeds are adequately moistened. Ensure that the soil is consistently moist but not waterlogged throughout the germination period.

4. Location: 
- Place the pot in a location that receives full sun. Orange capsicums require at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day for optimal growth.
- Ensure there is good air circulation around the pot to prevent fungal diseases.

5. Fertilization: 
- Dilute the concentrated root fertilizer according to the package instructions.
- Apply the diluted fertilizer to the soil around the base of the seedlings once they have established and developed a few sets of true leaves.

6. Nutrification: 
- Use the plant nutrifier spray according to the instructions on the package. This will provide additional nutrients to support the healthy growth of the red capsicum plants.

7. Maintenance: 
- Use the scraper tool to remove any weeds or debris from the surface of the soil without disturbing the seedlings.
- Apply bug deterrence powder around the base of the pot to deter pests. Follow the instructions on the package for proper application.

8. Thinning and Transplanting: 
- Once the seedlings have grown a few inches tall, thin them out to ensure proper spacing. Leave the healthiest seedlings and remove the weaker ones.
- If transplanting is desired, carefully lift the seedlings and replant them in larger containers or directly into the garden.

9. Support: 
- As the orange capsicum plants grow, they may require support to prevent them from bending or breaking. Use stakes or trellises to provide support as needed.

10. Harvesting: 
- Orange capsicums can be harvested when they reach their mature size and color. Use a sharp knife or scissors to cut the peppers from the plant, leaving a short stem attached.

11. Ongoing Care: 
- Continue to water the plants regularly, especially during dry periods.
- Monitor for signs of pests or diseases and take appropriate measures to address them.

### Tips:
- Orange capsicum plants prefer warm temperatures and consistent moisture. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
- Mulching around the plants can help retain moisture and suppress weed growth.
- Enjoy the vibrant red capsicums fresh in salads, stir-fries, or roasted dishes!
