NOTE: For the first year donot immidietaly substitute 100% chemical fertilizer with the SIESTO GREEN products, as the soil is used to chemical fertilizer, it may affect the output. So the best way to substitute is by reducing 50% of chemical input in the first year, 25% the following 2nd year, & then another 10% by the 3rd year. After the 3rd year use synthetic fertilizer / inorganic fertilizer if their is a requirement depending on the soil health.
CROP SCHEDULE FOR CHILLI
| Sr. No. | Treatment / Application | Product | Dose /Acre | APPLICATION | Management |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vegetative – Dissolve in 20 to 200 ltr. of water as required for 1 acre of land and apply through Drip Irrigation or drench. | POORNIMA KIT | 1 KIT | Apply after transplantation that is week 2 and then on week 9. | It is a balanced form of nutrients that includes NPK, Zinc, Cropforce NP, Humigrow NP, and Mycorrhiza NP |
| 2 | Vegetative – Mix all with the required amount of water and apply through drip irrigation, flood irrigation, or drenching as per farmer’s availability. | NPK + Humigrow | 2 Caps + 120gm | Apply it in week 6, week 13 & week 17. | It is a balanced form of Nutrition that includes NPK. |
| 3 | Flowering – Mix both in 20 – 200 litres of water as per requirement and spray it in the plants. | ALP + Sonhabihan | 250gm + 250gm/ 200 lit. of water | Apply it in week 10 (When flowerings are seen) and week 14. | It is a Micronutrient and PGP that helps in Growth, Fruit set, and the quality of the produce. |
PEST ATTACKS, BACTERIAL, OR FUNGAL MANAGEMENT
.
| PEST / BACTERIAL / FUNGAL | IDENTIFICATION IN CROP | SYMPTOMS | SUGGESTED PRODUCT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Damping Off |  | It is characterized by the development of disease after seedlings have emerged out of the soil but before stems are lignified. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Die-back and Anthracnose (Fruit rot) |  | Small, circular to irregular, brownish-black scattered spots appear on leaves. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Choeanephora blight/ Wet rot |  | Plants from seedling to early flowering stage are susceptible. | Indofa + Bacillus + Bacillus Subtilis + Traps |
| Powdery mildew |  | The white powdery coating appears mostly on the lower surface and occasionally on the upper surface. | Life-line + Indofa + BT + Bacillus |
| Cercospora Leaf spot |  | Circular spots with brown margins and a grey centre appear on leaves. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Bacterial Leaf spot |  | Lesions on the leaf begin as circular. Spots become necrotic with brown centres with chlorotic borders. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Alternaria Leaf spot |  | The fungus attacks the foliage causing characteristic leaf spots and blight. Early blight is first observed on the plants as small, black lesions mostly on the older foliage. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Fusarium Wilt |  | The first symptom of the disease is the clearing of the veinlets and chlorosis of the leaves. | Indofa + Bacillus + Lifeline |
| Pod Borer |  | Internal tissues are eaten severely and completely hollowed out. While feeding the caterpillar thrust its head inside leaving the rest of the body outside. | Meta + Traps + BT |
| Tobacco Caterpillar |  | Pest breeds throughout the year, and Moths are active at night. Adults live for 7-10 days. | BT + Meta |
| Spider Mites / Yellow mites |  | The infected leaves develop crinkles and curl downwards. | Lifeline + Traps + Meta + BT |
| Root-knot nematodes |  | In infected plants in patches in the field, the Formation of galls on the host root system is the primary symptom. | Meta + BT + Pacliq |
| Thrips |  | The infected leaves curl upward, crumble, and shed. | Lifeline + Traps + Meta + BT |
| Aphids |  | Appear on the tender shoots, leaves, and on the lower surface of the leaves. Suck the sap and reduce the vigour of the plant. | Lifeline + Traps + Meta + BT |
NUTRITION DEFICIENCY
| NUTRIENT | IDENTIFICATION | SYMPTOMS | SUGGESTED PRODUCT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nitrogen |  |
The older and lower leaves on your plants will start to become yellow, wilt, and drop off. This is because the younger leaves higher up the plant will start to steal the nitrogen from these older leaves. | Azoss Caps |
| Phosphorus |  |
Dark green/purple leaves and Small leaf size | PSB Plus |
| Potash |  |
A potassium deficiency, on the other hand, results in deformed or drooping leaves, which later form brown margins and lead to cracks in the fruit skins. | bio Potash caps |
| Iron |  |
Poor seed germination, Reduced leaf colour, and Weakness or wilting | ALP |
| Boron |  |
Slow plant growth, and Stunted vegetation | ALP |
| Manganese |  |
Slow plant growth, Stunted vegetation, and undeveloped root systems. | ALP |
| Zinc |  |
New leaves turn white, pale yellow, bronze, or yellow. Leaf tissues die due to chlorosis. Clustered leaves on the stems. Stunted growth, and Narrow leaves. | ZSB Caps |
| Sulphur |  |
Light green colouration. More leaves change colour and the light green colour changes in places to deep yellow. | Sulphur Caps |
KEY FARMING POINTS
KEY FARMING POINTS
- SOIL TYPE = It can be grown in all types of soil, but sandy – loam, clay loam & and loamy soils are the best suited for chilli.
- SOIL PH = A pH range of 5.5 – 7 is best. Acidic soils are not suitable for chilli cultivation.
- CLIMATE / TEMPERATURE = It grows well in warm & humid climate and a temperature of 20˚ to 30˚C.
- SEASON OF PLANTING = The best time to plant chilli is during the cool dry season (November to March) for ideal temperatures and lower pest risk. While planting during the warm dry season (April-May or June-July) is possible, opt for heat-resistant varieties and provide extra protection from the sun's intensity.
- SPACING = 5ft x 1ft
- MANURING & FERTILIZATION = Fertilizer requirements depend on the fertility or quality of the soil.
- WATER MANAGEMENT = Depends on the farmer’s practice.
- HARVESTING DURATION = On average harvesting starts in 55 - 60 days.
- YIELD = Depends on variety.
- Recommended dosage on this crop schedule can vary depending on soil health, environmental conditions, and pest attacks.
- Add available forms of Phosphorus and Potash depending on the crop and crop varieties before every Transplantation.
- Add available forms of calcium and magnesium as per the requirement.
- 1-acre POORNIMA KIT contains: -
- NPK caps = 2 caps
- Zinc caps = 1 cap
- Cropforce Nano Powder = 120gm
- Humigrow Nano Powder = 120 gm
- Mycorrhiza nano powder = 100 gm
- Biofertilizer is not a chemical fertilizer hence do not mix with agrochemicals.
- Do not expose to direct sunlight or heat.
- Use Bio-fertilizer before or after 3-4 days of use of chemical fertilizer.
- Please, clean the sprayer before the use of Bio-fertilizer or bio-pesticide.
