Premature flowering

The premature flowering of the peppers caused us a small problem.
Actually, it is a big problem because our peppers are still in the seedling cups.

One way to prevent flowering is not to remove the flower ,because another flower will continue.
The best way is to transfer the peppers to the ground.
A small shock to the plant will quickly adapt to the new environment.
But most importantly, it will stop the flowering of the peppers.
Which are currently too small to form and bear fruit on their own.
The initial shock will delay the flowering and give the peppers time to put down strong roots and make a big stem.
This has not happened to us often, maybe the second or third time that they start flowering too early.
I think the weather conditions are also to blame so we walked the peppers outside a lot, we had a small improvised greenhouse just for the peppers.

Otherwise, peppers are a very sensitive and demanding plant
We love them and plant them every year
This year, the two varieties bell pepper and horn .I hope I translated our local names well :).
In one of my future reports I will let you know how successful this forced transplant was.In the hole where we placed the wig, we added a little
wood ash and crushed eggshells
To provide it with the necessary elements for growth, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, calcium carbonate ...
We successfully transplanted the pepper and immediately installed the hoses from the drip system
And a little later, the shade should come

You will also see in my paintings how changeable the weather is
and while I was working and painting, sunny and cloudy intervals alternated
Our orchard is doing well
The new apple tree has formed and the first fruits are healthy so far
The sour cherries are starting to ripen
Even though they are red, they are still not sweet

But that's why the strawberries are sweet, they're also arriving now
I can't wait to pick them from my son, he snatches every one

Sage is also blooming at this time
A very medicinal and healthy plant
The zucchini is also doing well

The grapes are struggling, this is their third year ,but they haven't made much progressI hope it will show more significant growth this year. Unlike the grapes, the blackberry is progressing well.

Hello, the ideal time to transplant peppers is between 21 and 25 days after transplanting, when the seedlings have reached a height of 12 centimeters and have 5 leaves. If they're left in these trays for a month, they'll likely flower sooner. Another factor is water stress, as germination trays don't retain water or humidity for long. However, if, through some carelessness, they begin to flower in the tray, simply transplant them and remove the first flower, and that's it. Although I see you've already done this, I wish you the best with your growing. Best regards.
