Abstract

Potassium fertilizers: KCl, K2SO4 and KCl + K2SO4 (1:1 K) differentiated the content of nutritive components in the leaves and fruits of hot pepper. Fertilization with K2SO4 in com- parison to KCl fertilizer to KCl fertilizer decreased the content of total N, Ca, Mg, Cl in leaves and fruits of hot pepper. On the other hand, the content of K and S-SO4 in leaves was greater, while in the fruits, it was smaller in case of K2SO4 application as compared with KCl.
