Cuidados e Dicas
- How long does it take to grow?
The malagueta or cayenne pepper can take between 10 to 15 days to germinate and 6 to 8 months to harvest.
Cherry tomatoes can take between 5 to 10 days to germinate and 6 to 8 months to bear fruit.
Watermelon can take between 5 to 15 days to germinate and 5 to 6 months to bear fruit.
Strawberries can take between 15 to 30 days to germinate and 6 to 8 months to bear fruit. - Will it grow again?
The malagueta is a perennial plant, enduring several cycles. After harvesting all the peppers, you should replace the soil and plant more seeds.
Cherry tomatoes are perennial and have multiple cycles. After harvesting all the tomatoes, you should replace the soil and plant more seeds.
Watermelon is annual. After harvesting, you should renew the substrate and plant more seeds.
Strawberries are perennial plants, lasting several cycles. After harvesting all the fruits, you should replace the soil and plant more seeds. - How often should I water?
The malagueta, cherry tomatoes, watermelon, and strawberries prefer moist soil, but not soggy. Check with your finger in the soil: if it feels dry, water close to the ground with the equivalent of a coffee cup. In summer, more regular watering is needed. Remember that too much water at the bottom can harm the plant.
- Should I place it outside or move it to a pot?
These fruits (except for watermelon) can be kept indoors in a spot with light and direct sunlight, but they can also be placed outdoors in a location with natural light, sun, and sheltered from the wind.
- Do you have whiteflies on the leaves?
Your plant is infested with whiteflies. To combat this, you can dissolve 1 teaspoon of soap flakes and add 5 drops of oil in half a liter of warm water, then place it in a spray bottle. Spray until the whiteflies are well covered. You can also use neem oil, which is a natural insect repellent.
