| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation was carried out at the Model Floriculture Research Centre, Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, District Udham Singh Nagar (Uttarakhand) during September, 2011 to April, 2013 to find out suitable growing substrates and optimum nutritional dose for quality flower production of rose grown under protected conditions. Five growing medium viz., soil + FYM (G1), soil + vermicompost (G2), soil + cocopeat (G3) and soil + rice husk (G4) and soil (control) (G5) mixed in the ratio of 2:1 (v/v) and four fertilizers sources viz., F1 (50 ppm of NPK, water soluble fertilizers), F2 (100 ppm of NPK, water soluble fertilizers) and F3 (150 ppm of NPK water soluble fertilizers) were used. Total numbers of treatments were twenty with three replication of each treatment along with six plants/bed of 1m2 sizes and total numbers of beds were 60. Experimental design was CRD two Factorial with all factorial combination of five growing media and four fertilizers combination. Among twenty treatment combinations, treatment consisting of soil + vermicompost along with 150 ppm NPK and their interactions were found best treatment for most of the parameters viz., maximum plant height, leaf area, leaf length, leaf width, number of flowers/bed/year, flower bud length, flower diameter, vase life of flowers and total stem length. Treatment containing soil and no fertilizers and their interaction (G5F4) were found inferior in almost all aspects of the vegetative as well as floral attributes during present experiment. | en_US |
