Significantly higher number of primary branches plant-1, number of fruits plant-1, fruit yield plant-1, fruit yield plot-1, fruit yield ha-1 were observed with application of 125% RDF 7 days of intervals upto 90 DAT. The improvement in quality parameters were also recorded with application of 125% RDF with 7 days of intervals upto 90 DAT.
