Method advantages

The main positive aspects of this Snail method:

  • the material for planting is of high quality;
  • the plant is practically not attacked by parasites and diseases;
  • the gardener will be able to control the germination of seeds and select the defective material;
  • humidity control;
  • proper care will make it possible to grow a healthy plant, mold will bypass the soil;
  • good economy in the room: a large number of containers with seedlings will not clutter up the room, the snail method takes 20 cm in diameter and makes it possible to grow about 100 healthy plants;
  • picking is easy: if you wrap the seeds gradually, you can get them without disturbing the roots of the plant;
  • small costs during cultivation for planting material: it is also possible to use consumables several times.

Disadvantages of the method

Yulia Minyaeva's method has several negative sides.

  1. Seedlings grow at the same time, but close enough to each other, therefore, it is recommended to sow seeds twice as much as necessary, because the weak, late and those that interfere with the growth of the rest will be thrown away. You should not spare the seeds, it is better to leave them in smaller quantities, but only the strongest and healthiest.
  2. It is necessary to pick the plant directly from the snail.

Julia Minyaeva recommends making the length of the snail up to 10-20 packs of pepper seeds. In this situation, the cocoon will turn out to be very convenient for use. 1 snail - 1 grade of peppers. Planting material from different packs or varieties can have different ripening and germination times. If they are sown in one snail, it will be quite difficult to understand which seeds are suitable for planting and which are not. It is best to start sowing seeds in April.

Preparing for landing

To plant peppers for seedlings, Yulia Minyaeva recommends using the following materials:

  • special underlay for the floor;
  • Earth;
  • transparent container;
  • transparent film or bag;
  • small elastic band.

Landing rules

It is best to carry out the procedure with seeds on the table.

First you need to prepare the seeds for planting. It is necessary to take the tape, spread it on the table and place a layer of soil on it, about 20-30 cm, so that it does not spill out at the edges. We retreat 2 cm from the edge of the tape and plant the seeds. You can press with your finger to sink them a little into the ground. The distance between the seeds should be 2 cm.

Then the tape with the planting material is wrapped like a roll. The remaining space is again covered with soil and the seeds are sown, but more carefully, and the tape is gradually continued to be wrapped until the very end.When the seeds run out, the roll is held together. Thus, a snail is obtained. The snail is tied with an elastic band and placed in a plastic container, such as a bottle.

A large margin on the tape should be on top of the can Sprinkle a small amount of earth on top of the snail. After that, it is watered 1 time. The next time watering is carried out through the pallet, it is necessary to control the amount of moisture.

Care

After the seeds are planted, the snail is watered and covered with a bag. Polyethylene creates a greenhouse effect. The film can be fixed with an elastic band. The container is placed on a pallet and taken to a warm place, such as the kitchen. When the first stems begin to be released, the film is removed. The plant is placed in a sunny place, for example, on a windowsill, and the seedlings are watered through a tray.

Yulia Minaeva claims that the seedlings grow strong, even and beautiful, and the planting will not take up much space in the house. This is very important for every gardener, because in the spring, not only pepper is harvested for planting, but also other crops. Sowing with this method can be carried out not only for peppers, but also for cucumbers, tomatoes and eggplants.

Picking

Do not forget to dive seedlings

Do not forget to dive seedlings

The gardener must understand that a snail is sowing seeds for seedlings, and film planting requires further picking. To start diving, you need to take all the necessary tools and a container with earth. The land should be fertile and moist. Damp earth will not crumble.

You need to take a film or simple bags, as well as an empty container in which ready-made pepper seedlings are placed. Wet sawdust is placed on the bottom of this container. This can be omitted if the bag is wrapped at the bottom. They also take a watering can and a sprayer with water for transplanting. It will be convenient to transplant with a small spatula or fork. To prevent the transplanted packages from falling apart, they are fixed with rubber bands.

Transfer to an open area

Seedlings grow for about 40-60 days and after this time they are ready for transplanting to the garden. It is worth remembering that planting time depends on the region, since in cold areas, seedlings are planted in a greenhouse, and not in open ground.

During transplantation, the film roll is carefully unrolled and the plants are taken one at a time. The adaptation time is reduced by about half a month, because the root was not affected.

Growing with paper

If the gardener is worried that a disease in the form of a black leg will attack the plant, Yulia Minyaeva recommends the cultivation method using toilet paper.

Sowing bell pepper is as follows:

  • first you need to free up space to lay out all the necessary tools;
  • then they measure the tape and cut it: its width should be greater than that of toilet paper, it can be any length - a roll of paper will be much smaller than a roll with soil, so it can be made long, for example, not 10 cm, but 20- 30 cm;
  • the paper is placed on the backing, which is equal to the width of the backing;
  • pepper seeds are placed so that they do not lie on the very edge, therefore they make an indent of 1 cm - the distance between the seeds should be 2-3 cm;
  • from any edge, you can start winding the paper into a roll, but slowly - the edges are fixed with an elastic band, you can take 2 elastic bands and attach both edges of the snail;
  • the finished snail is transferred into a transparent container, but so that the seeds are closer to the upper edge - water is poured onto the bottom of the container, the water must reach the paper so that it absorbs it.

Conclusion

Planting peppers according to the recommendations of Yulia Minaeva gives only positive results. Many gardeners use just such growing methods and are satisfied with the harvest. Growing by the snail method does not take much time and effort, and also saves space in the house.
