Abstract:
The present experiment entitled “Influence of capsicum hybrids to micronutrients on growth and quality of capsicum (Capsicum annuum L.) Under naturally ventilated poly house” was carried out during Rabi season of 2021-22 and 2022-2023 at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur. The experiment was laid out in split plat design with 45 treatment combinations replicated thrice. The experiment was comprised of three capsicum hybrids varieties (Indira, Swarna and Bomby) with five levels of different micronutrients. On the basis of results of the present investigation, The capsicum hybrid (Indira) with foliar Application of vegetable special @ 5 g/at 15 day were recorded maximum on growth parameters viz., plant height (cm), number of branches, Stem diameter (cm), number of leaves, days to first flowering, internodes length (cm), Similar trend was also recorded in quality parameters viz., pericarp thickness, dry matter, TSS and Shelf life. Among the level of micronutrient, foliar application of vegetable special @5/lit showed highest growth and quality parameter of capsicum.
