Several viral gardening hacks can help boost pepper production. One popular method is using Epsom salt, which provides magnesium and sulfur, essential nutrients for peppers. Dissolving a tablespoon of Epsom salt in a gallon of water and applying it as a foliar spray can enhance plant health.
Another hack is using banana peels, which are rich in potassium, as a natural fertilizer. Burying banana peels near the base of the plants can slowly release nutrients into the soil. Additionally, companion planting with herbs like basil or marigolds can deter pests and improve pollination, leading to better fruiting.
