The critical period of weed competition in peppers (Capsicum annum L.) var. "California Wonder was studied in randomized blocks design experiment with 4 replications in the IISV Experimental Station, Alquizar, Havana province, on a Red Ferralitic soil during 1980-1981 period. It was also assessed weed control and selectivity to peppers by preplanting treatments of trifluralin (0,5-1,5 kg a.i/ha), olitref (0,75-1,0 kg a.i/ha) and nitralin (1,5-2,25 kg a.i./ha), as well as by post-planting and pre-emergence treatments for the weeks with diphenamide (3,2-4,8 kg a.i/ha) in experiments carried out at the same place, with the same designs and number of replicates as above during the 1975-1976 and 1978-1979 periods. It was established that pepper highest yields are obtained where the crop is weeded during the first 50-70 days after planting; thus, the crop is classified as susceptible weed competition. The most selective treatments were those based on trifluralin (1,0-1,5 kg a.i./ha) which should be soil-incorporated to the 7-10 cm depth and not to be used in areas with high incidence of Parthenium hysterophorus; and on diphenamide (4,8 kg a.i./ha) which offered yields near to or higher than those in the hand weeded plots in all cases.
