The authors would like to make the following corrections to the published paper [1]. The changes are as follows:
  • Add the sentence below in “Discussion”:
A similar study was conducted by Saqib and Anjum [38]. They observed that sweet peppers sown on 1 February showed the maximum yield with an avg. fruit weight of 28 g; however, we have observed that the maximum avg. fruit weight was observed when plants were planted on 25 January, with 33 g. The scientists [38] suggested that 1 February was the best date for sowing sweet pepper seedlings in the Multan region only in 2018, while in our study, the prior dates from 1 February (10 January and 25 January) showed the maximum yield and also better shelf life compared to any other sowing date.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated
