dc.description.abstractStudies on the effect of pulsing solution and packaging on the vase life of chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) was carried out in the department of Horticulture, CCS HAU, Hisar, Haryana during 2008-09. Vase life was maximum in all cut flower in a pulsing solution with 2% sugar + 200 ppm 8-Hydroxyquinoline citrate. Because it maintained maximum flower diameter and fresh weight and water uptake. pH of control solution was maximum as compared to other pulsing solution (except 2% sugar + 200 ppm 8-Hydroxyquinoline citrate). The proximal end browning was minimum with 2% sugar + 200 ppm 8-Hydroxyquinoline citrate. The total, reducing and non reducing sugars was maximum in flower kept in 2% sugar + 200 ppm 8-Hydroxyquinoline citrate. The flower stored diameter was maximum when flowers packed in polyethylene stored in cold storage at 10ºC. The flower fresh weight was maximum when flower packed in polyethylene stored in cold storage (at 10ºC). The physiological loss in weight was minimum when flower packed in polyethylene and stored in cold storage at 10ºC. The abscised petals and proximal end browning was minimum when flower packed in polyethylene and stored in cold storage at 10ºC. The total, reducing and non reducing sugars were maximum when flowers packed in polyethylene and stored in cold storage at 10ºC.en_US
