    Effect of time of planting and spacing on growth, flowering and yield of annual chrysanthemum
    (CCSHAU, 2006) Joshi, Ankush; Dahiya, D.S.
    The present investigations entitled, “Effect of time of planting and spacing on growth, flowering and yield of annual chrysanthemum” were carried out at the experimental orchard, Department of Horticulture, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during the year 2004-05. The experiment was laid out in split plot design having six planting times (mid September to December) and four spacings (30 cm x 30 cm, 30 cm x 45 cm, 45 cm x 45 cm and 45 cm x 60 cm) with three replications. The plant growth in terms of plant height, spread and number of branches per plant was recorded maximum in 15th October planting whereas minimum in 1st December planting. The number of branches per plant were found maximum in 15th October planting which was at par with 1st November planting. The days to bud appearance and first flowering were recorded minimum in 1st November planting which were at par with 15th October planting. The minimum days to 50% flowering were taken by 15th October planting which were at par with 1st November planting. The maximum duration of flowering and size of flower was observed in 15th October planting. In case of yield parameters, the number of flowers per plant, the maximum average weight of flowers, yield per plant and yield per acre and were observed maximum in 15th October planting which were at par with 1st November planting whereas minimum in 1st December planting. The maximum plant height was recorded at the closest spacing of 30 cm x 30 cm which decreased with increase in spacing. The maximum plant spread and number of branches per plant were recorded at the widest spacing of 45 cm x 60 cm. The minimum days bud appearance, first flowering and 50% flowering were recorded in 45 cm x 60 cm spacing. The duration of flowering and size of flower was also recorded maximum in the spacing of 45 cm x 60 cm. The number of flowers per plant, average weight of flowers and yield per plant was recorded maximum at the widest spacing of 45 cm x 60 cm whereas minimum in 30 cm x 30 cm spacing. The maximum yield per acre was recorded at the closest spacing of 30 cm x 30 cm which decreased with increase in spacing.
