Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the possibility of treating plant growth retardants to seeds to suppress height of plug seedlings. Seeds of ‘Hyangchon’ and ‘Nokkwang’ peppers were soaked in a 15 mL solution of either daminozide (10, 100, or 1,000 $mgáL^{-1}$), uniconazole (1, 10, or 100 $mgáL^{-1}$), or ethephon (1,000, 2,000, or 3,000 $mgáL^{-1}$) for one, three, and five days, respectively. Only uniconazole had significant effect on suppressing hypocotyl length and seedling height, while other treatments had decreased percent emergence without any expected suppression of stem length in both cultivars.
