- Intervention effect Potassium nitrate at 2% improved fruit weight, diameter, medium and large fruit share and yield versus water spray.
- Intervention effect Potassium sulphate at 1.5 and 3.0% improved fruit yield versus water spray.
- Intervention effect Potassium sprays reduced the share of small fruit.
- Intervention effect Fruit count per plant did not differ significantly among treatments.
- Intervention effect KNO3 at 4% outperformed other sources and doses for yield and yield parameters.
- Intervention effect Three K sprays in late April, May and August were superior or equal to two sprays in late April and August.
