- Intervention effect NaCl-induced EC5 had the most negative effects on chili pepper growth, yield, and fruit quality.
- Intervention effect KCl used to induce EC5 reduced some chili pepper growth parameters.
- Intervention effect K₂SO₄-induced EC5 gave better chili pepper growth than NaCl or KCl.
- Intervention effect All Nutrients-induced EC5 gave better chili pepper growth than NaCl or KCl.
- Intervention effect NaCl significantly reduced chili pepper fruit fresh yield relative to controls.
- Intervention effect NaCl significantly reduced chili pepper fruit soluble solids and vitamin C relative to controls.
- Intervention effect KCl reduced chili pepper growth and fruit quality traits less than NaCl.
- Intervention effect All Nutrients-induced EC5 did not significantly reduce the measured chili pepper growth and fruit quality traits relative to controls.
- Intervention effect K₂SO₄ did not significantly reduce some chili pepper growth and fruit quality traits relative to controls.
