Abstract:
The field experiment was carried out at College of Horticulture, Dapoli during the years 2019 and 2020 to assess the effect of planting season on sprouting and survival of bush pepper. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with Seven treatments as month of propagation; January to July and replicated three times. The sprouting percent in bush pepper cutting plating in different season during 2019 and 2020. The treatment T6 i.e., planting in June 2020 registered maximum sprouting (91.33%) which was at par with the treatments T3. The lowest spouting percent (46.67%) was recorded in T1 (planting in January) which was at par with T2 (52.33%) i.e., planting in February. The significant difference was observed for survival percentage of bush pepper cutting planting in different season of both year of planting. The highest survival percentage (55.83%) was recorded in treatment T6 i. e. planting in June which was at par with the treatment T3 (48.33%).
