Influence of different planting frames on the development of the hybrid pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) ‘Carleza’ under protected cultivation
Main Article Content
Abstract
The work was developed with the objective of evaluating the influence of three planting frames in the development of the hybrid pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) ‘Carleza’, under protected cultivation, in a Basic Business Unit of Protected and Semi-protected Crops of the Company "Paquito Rosales Benítez” from Yara municipality, Granma, Cuba. It was used a random block design with three treatments: planting frame 15 cm away (T1), planting frame 40 cm away (T2) and planting frame at 20 cm (T3) and 3 replications. All this, to study the morphological and agronomic parameters of the crop: plant height, stem thickness, fruit length and diameter, number of fruits per plant and agricultural yield after transplanting pepper crop. All of them were compared by means of a double classification analysis of variance (ANOVA) with the statistical package STATISTICA and when there were significant differences, the Fisher's LSD multiple comparison test for a probability p <0.95. The results allowed determining that the T2 planting frame provided an agricultural yield of 19.00 t ha-1; plants reached a stem 15.33 mm thick by 140.00 cm high and fruits with an average length of 7.98 cm by 8.75 cm in diameter.
