Vegetative and productive responses of tabasco pepper to fertigation and plastic mulching

The use of plastic mulching and high frequency hydroponic drip irrigation (intensive production methods) watering cycle may increase tabasco pepper crop per unit area. To test this hypothesis, two randomized block experiments were conducted in a greenhouse, using 2 × 4 factorial scheme with contrasting soil types (sandy loam loamy soil), conditions cover (SC), no (NC) at four frequencies: 1, 3, 12, 24 irrigations every three days. growth yield components evaluated the water efficiency (WUE) was calculated. Mulching did fruit dry mass percentage (FDMP), WUE, potassium (KUE) sandy soil. greater fertigation not fresh (FFM), number fruits (NF), average (FAM), (FDM), FDMP, or WUE soils. Tabasco has permanent shrub habit that is somewhat different from horticultural crops, besides it usually responsive to under vegetative intensive growth.
