| Nutrient Management (N:P:K) | Providing the right nutrients at the rite time to support healthy growth and fruit development Important Nutrients: Nitrogen: Needed for strong seedlings and plant development, especially before flowering stages. Phosphorus: Needed early on for good root growth and flowering. Potassium: Needed in Larger quantities than nitrogen for better fruit size development. Calcium & Boron: Needed in large quantities especially during flowering, fruit development, and up to harvest. N:P:K = 100:120: 120 Kg / Acre Basal Application: 50% of recomended P & K along with 1/3 of nitrogen during soil preparation or at planting Top Dressing: Apply remaining nitrogen in 2-3 split doses i) First Dose - 20-25 DAT ii) Second Dose - During Flowering/Fruit set iii) Third Dose - During Fruit Development / harvest intervals |
