Fertilisation and root development for chilli and pepper

Peppers and chillies have a long development time and set fruit in flushes, which makes consistency across the season more important than individual peaks. Our pepper cutting trial ran in tenths of a percent and peaked at 0.2 % — a sign that the species responds to very low doses.
