This research aims to assess how irrigation levels and vermicompost doses affect the growth and yield of pepper plants grown in greenhouses.
Experiment involved testing different irrigation levels (100%, 75%, 50%) and vermicompost doses (0%, 10%, 20%) on peppers.
Measurements included plant growth parameters, fruit quality, and water consumption in polycarbonate greenhouses.
Total yield and water use efficiency were calculated for various treatments.
The highest yield (164.5 g pot−1) was achieved at the 100% irrigation level with 10% vermicompost.
Similar yields were noted at 75% irrigation with 20% vermicompost, suggesting alternatives to full irrigation.
Irrigation levels significantly affected various plant growth parameters and fruit quality attributable to the treatments.
