Many people ask me how I manage to harvest so many and such large sopropos every year. The secret lies in the soil and ensuring a strong main stem.
I would like to share my tips with you:
- Provide a loose and nutritious soil (40% potting compost, 40% soil and 20% worm castings).
- During the first month, remove all suckers that grow every 10cm.
- If necessary, pollinate by hand the female flowers with the fruit with the male flowers without fruit.
- After a month, remove all leaves from the bottom down to a height of 40 to 50 cm.
By following these steps you will enjoy delicious large sopropos.
Good luck this upcoming season!
