Abstract:
The present investigation was carried out at the experimental field of Faculty of Agriculture, Horticulture Department, A.K.S. University, Satna (M.P.) in the year 2017-18. The experiment include 3 combinations of Gibberellic acid along with control viz. 0 PPM- GA
0, 50 PPM- GA
1,100 PPM- GA
2, and150 PPM- GA
3 replicated 5 times using randomized block design. It was observed in the application of GA3 @ 150 PPM found significantly superior over other treatments in terms of plant height at 30 DAT, 60 DAT and at harvest (76.82 cm, 116.14 cm, 141.58 cm), No of branches/plant at 30 DAT and at harvest (28.37 and 50.73), fruit length (29.74 cm), fresh weight of 10 fruits of chilli (109.85 g), number of fruits/plant (127.91), fruit yield/plant (636.04 g), fruit yield/ha (25.70 t/ha) and vitamin C content (98.49 mg/100 g).
