Bottom Pruning and Mulching Pepper Plants - Pepper Geek

Get our eBook! ►► https://peppergeek.com/ebook In this video, we discuss the benefits of mulching and bottom pruning pepper plants. These two techniques are great for creating an easier-to-manage pepper garden that is also more attractive. Mulching peppers is a great way to prevent weeds, reduce soil splashing and insulating the roots from the cold. We love using straw, but it can be a bit messy. You can also use grass clippings, black plastic, or wood chips (though you should use some caution with these). Bottom pruning is optional, but definitely worth considering for its benefits. The goal is to remove lower foliage (but not low branches) from the plant, up to about 6" above the soil. This helps avoid soil hitting the leaves, and makes it much easier to access the plant for watering and harvesting.
