| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Department, Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture and Technology, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur (Raj.) during August, 2016- February to February 2017 to work out themost suitable growing mediafor producing the best quality and most presentable potted Chrysanthemum. Theexperiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design having 10 treatmentcombinationsofgrowingmediaandreplicated20times. The potting media - T4comprising Soil: Sand: FYM:Vermicompost (2:1:0.5:0.5, v/v/v) recorded highest values in terms of plant height, plant spread, internodal length, diameter, number of branches, earliest flower bud appearance(75.30 days), bud show color stage(83 days), floral bud break stage(101.50days),flower diameter,spray plant-1, days to flower withering, flower per plant(51.10), weight of flower (46.54g), flower duration (45.95days), whereas, ideal potting T4 - comprising Soil : Sand : FYM : Vermicompost (2:1:0.5:0.5, v/v/v) PH(6.1), Ec (0.64 ds m-1) and water holding capacity (87.85%) before transplanting was better than T1– Soil as control. After completion of flowering phase lowest pH (7.3), higher Ec (1.47) and higher water holding capacity (97.36%) were obtained in T4Soil : Sand : FYM : Vermicompost(2:1:0.5:0.5, v/v/v) than the T1 - Soil as controlplant survival (96.67%). The study indicated that most desirable and presentable potted plants of Chrysanthemum can be raised by using soil: sand: FYM : vermicompost (2:1:0.5:0.5, v/v/v) as growing media. | en_US |
