Abstract

The research using vertical towers was carried out at Centre of Excellence (COE) for vegetables and flowers, Jeedimetla, Medchal Malkajgiri district of Telangana during Rabi 2022-23 and 2023-24 in Factorial Completely Randomized Design (FCRD) evaluating four varieties V1- Nabila (Short day), V2- Flaminia (Short day), V3- Murano (Everbearing), V4-Vivara (Everbearing) and four planting dates D1- planting on October 15th D2-Planting on October 30th, D3- planting on November 15th, D4- planting on November 30th. The vertical tower was divided into three tiers, namely the top tier, middle tier and lower tier and the observations were taken accordingly. The results revealed that, the top tier of the vertical tower has exhibited higher percentage of total sugars and lower percentage of titratable acidity than subsequent tiers of the vertical tower among all the varieties, dates of planting and interactions. Among varieties, Shortday varieties V1 (Nabila) and V2 (Flaminia) has revealed highest percentage of total sugars and lowest percentage of titratable acidity than everbearing varieties V3 (Murano) and V4 (Vivara) in all the tiers of the vertical tower. Among planting dates, D2 (Planting on October 30th) has registered with highest percentage of Total sugars and lowest percentage of titratable acidity in all the tiers of the vertical tower. The interaction of V1 (Nabila) and V2 (Flaminia) with D2 (planting on October 30th) indicated highest percentage of total sugars and the lowest percentage of titratable acidity in all the tiers of the vertical tower.
