Growth and yield response of pepper (capsicum annuum l.) to foliar application of carrageenan plant growth promoter/ Xaviery Joseph F. Guzman Bayombong: Nueva Vizcaya State University, 2021. xiii, 88 leaves : illustration, photos ; 28 cm. The study determined the growth and yield response of pepper to varying concentrations and frequencies of Carrageenan Plant Growth Promoter (CPGP). The evaluation was done under field conditions at Brgy. Quezon, Solano, Nueva Vizcaya from November 20, 2020 to February 21, 2021. The study was set-up in a split-plot randomized complete block design with three replications. The three varying application frequencies were designated as main-plots, and the four concentrations of CPGP, as sub-plots. Peppers applied with 120 ppm and two to three times application of CPGP significantly matured earlier based on number of days to flowering and number of days to first priming. The same treatment combination resulted in significantly taller plants and higher number of lateral shoots. In terms of yield, however, CPGP at 120 ppm applied three times gave significantly higher number and heavier weight of fruits. The concentration of 120 ppm CPGP applied thrice in growing pepper is shown in the study to be the best treatment combination.
