Abstract: RODRIGUEZ, MAY ANN L Growth of Four Varieties of Bell Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) in Locally Prepared Nutrient Media. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture major in Horticulture. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, April 2003. Adviser: Dr. Celso S. Crucido. The study was conducted at the Experimental Area of Crop Science Department, Cavite State University. It aimed to determine the growth and yield of four varieties of bell pepper in locally prepared nutrient media. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. The four hybrid varieties of bell pepper that were tested are as follows: Beauty Bell, Yellow Star, Big Star and Vega. Highly significant differences among varieties were observed in terms of plant height with Yellow Star as the tallest variety and Vega as the shortest. Results revealed non-significant differences among the four varieties in days of flowering, days of fruit setting to harvesting, weight of marketable and non-marketable fruits and length of roots. All varieties had better vegetative growth and root development when grown in locally prepared nutrient media. Low yield was obtained due to unfavorable weather condition, pest and disease incidence, inappropriate cultural management practices and insufficient supply of nutrients.
