Efficiency of Different Quantities of Bio- stimulant on Growth and Yield of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.)

The present experiment was conducted at Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during the session 2022 - 2024. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications, and the study consists of eleven treatment combinations including control. The best treatment was T7 (Amalgerol Essence 3.8 L /ha.) which shows highest values in all the parameters viz., day to germination (10.44), survival % (72.04%), plant height (cm) 90 DAT (77.39 cm), number of branches/plant 90 DAT (10.18), plant spread (53.07 cm), Days of 50 % flowering (56.38), days to first flowering (39.51), days of first harvesting (80.70). Increased growth, flowering might be due to the increased absorption of nutrients when given as foliar application.
