1. Give Them Plenty Of Water

Peppers need a lot of water, but you have to be careful not to overwater them as this can cause problems.  If the peppers are not planted in a way that allows for proper drainage, the water can stay around the roots of the plant cause root rot. This can kill the plant and make it, so it doesn’t produce any peppers. You also don’t want to let the soil dry out.  

The best way to make sure the peppers are getting the perfect amount of water is to check the soil often and see if the soil on top if wet. The soil should be damp at all times, but you should not see large amounts of water sitting on it.  

Some people even create an irrigation system that keeps the plants watered properly. You can buy irrigation systems or make your own out of PVC pipe. If you live in an area that gets plenty of rain, you may not need to water the plants.
