Özet

Pot capacity (PC) is defined as optimum moisture level of the pot-soil for irrigation in greenhouse experiments, is not same field capacity (FC) defined for field conditions. In this study, vermicompost was applied to different levels (0%, 0.75%, 1.5%, 2.25% w/w) for a sandy loam soil. Pepper was grown in greenhouse conditions. The irrigations were carried out at the levels of 80% PC and FC. Yield and some yield components were determined after 70 days from sowing. Effects of vermicompost were also, investigated on soil field capacity, wilting point and dispersion ratio. The differences found for plant height, weight, root weight, yield, leaf chlorophyll content were statistically significant. In addition, vermicompost applications provided to reduction of dispersion ratio.
