A field experiment was conducted at Instructional Farm Polyhouse, Dr. Sharadchandra Pawar College of Agriculture, Baramati during June 2023 to September 2023. The study aimed to investigate the Influence of Graded levels of Potassium Fertigation on Growth of Jalapeno Pepper Grown in Red Bole Soil Under Polyhouse. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with four replications. The treatments were five, viz., T1- Control, T2- Recommended dose of fertilizer, T3- Recommended dose of nitrogen and phosphorus (RDNP) + 125% Recommended dose of potassium (RDK), T4- Recommended dose of nitrogen and phosphorus (RDNP) + 150% Recommended dose of potassium (RDK) and T5- Recommended dose of nitrogen and phosphorus (RDNP) + 175% Recommended dose of potassium (RDK). Data were taken on growth contributing characters and the collected data were statistically analyzed for evaluation of the treatment effects. Data on growth parameters, including plant height, leaf area and chlorophyll content, were recorded at 20, 35, 50 and 65 days after transplanting (DAT) and analyzed statistically. The results indicated that the maximum plant height (95.65 cm), leaf area (61.61 dm²) and chlorophyll content (58.83) at 65 DAT were significantly higher in treatment T5 (RDNP + 175% RDK). This study concludes that the application of RDNP + 175% RDK via fertigation from 10 DAT to 60 DAT is optimal for the growth of Jalapeno pepper in red bole soil under polyhouse conditions, highlighting its potential for improving crop yield and quality.
