Delicious Bulgarian pepper: the disease of culture, and how to deal with them

Bulgarian pepper is a product of popular andextremely in demand. It contains carotene, mineral salts, proteins, glucose, many vitamins. They use vegetables for pickling, salting, cooking salads and hot dishes. However, what is important for people who grow bulgarian peppers? The diseases that affect it are diverse, and it is worthwhile to figure out how to prevent them and how to deal with them. This depends on the yield and quality of the product.

1. Blackleg. How does the Bulgarian pepper suffer in this case? Diseases of seedlings occur quite often, and this is one of them. The root neck as a result is considerably softened, darkens, eventually a constriction is formed. As a consequence - the plant fades and dies. Often such a disease develops in hotbeds that are not ventilated. If the infected seedlings are planted in the soil, it will quickly die. To fight this disease, you need to deal with seed dressing, disinfect the hotbeds, properly care for the seedlings in them.
2. Alternaria. The weather can contribute to its developmentwith occasional rains. The disease usually affects tomatoes, but also pepper. As a result, the leaves of the lower and upper layers are covered with dark brown round spots, then they gradually die off. The fruits suffer from black spots in the places of cracking and near the stalk. The same goes for the stems. The disease can also affect seedlings, adult plants. To prevent this from happening, it is important to strictly adhere to the crop rotation, that is, to return the pepper to the previous place no earlier than three years later. During the growing season, plants must be treated with special chemicals.
3. Septoria. Affects in open and closed groundBulgarian pepper. The disease is often found in sufficiently moist areas. On the leaves appear dirty-white spots with a dark border. In case of severe damage, they cover the entire surface. Leaves first turn yellow, and then dry out. Because of this disease, the yield is reduced by an average of 40 percent. Fight it the same way as with the previous one, described above.
4. Fusarium wilt. The most dangerous it is at the stage of fruit formation. In adult plants, the leaves turn yellow and die, they quickly fade. The main source of infection in this case is already "sick" seeds, soil, plant residues.

Bulgarian pepper: bacterial diseases

1. Black bacterial spotting. It affects petioles, stems, leaves, fruits. As a result, small watery spots appear on the plants. This is about leaves. But the stems on the stems are oblong and black. The source of the disease is plant residues in the soil (after harvesting) and infected seeds. But there are ways to deal with it. It is important to dress seeds, reject damaged seedlings, disinfect the soil, use chemicals to protect plants.
2. Lightning-fast bacterial wilt. In this case, the normal coloration retainsBulgarian pepper. Diseases of this kind are therefore dangerous. The plant simply withers, and white mucus emerges from the stems under the incision. To prevent infection, it is necessary to observe a crop rotation, and to return the nightshade cultures to the previous places not earlier than in 3 years.

Thus, it is not easy to grow Bulgarian pepper. Diseases should not be treated, but prevented.
