The study showed that pepper plants had a higher water uptake at a 2 mM ammonium concentration and an increase in nitrate absorption at 8 mM ammonium concentration. However, high toxicity and the production of deformed fruits were observed at ammonium concentrations from 6 to 8 mM. Optimum yield was found at 2 to 4 mM ammonium concentrations.
The response of pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) to Ammonium-N was studied in a multispan greenhouse under soilless culture using coir fiber as substrate. Ammonium-N application rates were 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 mM with a total-N concentration of 13 mM. The total content of the rest of all macronutrients in the nutrient solution was maintained from the beginning of the experiment until the end. The highest water uptake was recorded at 2 mM ammonium concentration in the nutrient solution. Compared to nitrate, ammonium nitrogen caused a decrease in nitrate absorption, but led to an increase when applying 8 mM ammonium. Despite a progressive increase in ammonium content in the nutrient solution, potassium absorption was constant below the ammonium concentration of 8 mM. Under a high N-NH4 content (from 6 to 8 mM) in the nutrient solution, high toxicity was found, deriving in the appearance of deformed or noncommercial fruits. There was a significant benefit by the use of ammonium as a component in the nutrient solution. The optimum yield ammonium concentrations were found in the range from 2 to 4 mM. Nevertheless, concentrations higher than 6 mM led into a decrease in commercial production, with the production of increasing deformed fruit, out of size and/or blossom-end rot.
