Abstract

An experiment was carried to evaluate the effect of combined application of seaweed and neem cake on growth and flowering of tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa)cv. Prajwal. The study was laid out under Randomized Block Design (RBD) with eleven treatments and three replications where different combinations of neem cake and seaweed were compared with control. The result of the experiment revealed that the application of neem cake and seaweed significantly affected the quantitative and qualitative characters of tuberose. Among all the treatments, treatment T11 (Seaweed 4g/m2 + Neem cake 0.4 kg/m2 ) was found most effective regarding the growth and flowering attributes in comparison to control. The treatment T11 (Seaweed 4g/m2 + Neem cake 0.4 kg/m2 ) also gave most promising result regarding vase life and spike yield.
