We are talking about calcium nitrate. This is the remedy that has a “magical” effect on seedlings that are stunted in development or are very elongated.

Calcium nitrate dissolves quickly and well even in cold water. It is enough to simply stir it.

The remedy must be applied under the root – 50 ml of solution for each seedling. The concentration is as follows: 1/2 tsp. per 1 l of water. You can approach the feeding of pepper seedlings with caution and reduce the dosage: a third of a tsp. per 1 l of water.

After applying the feeding, the seedlings seem to get a second wind. The seedlings begin to grow and develop rapidly: they grow green, and push out new pairs of leaves.
