Abstract
Establishment of the effectiveness of organic micronutrient complex on growth and biological mass of juniper juniper (Juniperus sabina L.) seedlings in an enclosed ground UNPK “Agrocenter” was the purpose of the study. The application of organic micronutrient complex increased the current growth of juniper seedlings, root neck diameter, root system length and total height of planting material of juniper. Close interdependence between the growth of juniper seedlings and the dose of fertilizer used is determined by coefficients of determination equal to 0.95-0.98. Accumulation of the biological mass of seedlings, depending on the applied dose, occurs with an increase in the participation of roots and needles by 1.79 and 1.1 times, respectively, in the total biomass of seedlings.
Highlights
Containerized planting material has been gaining popularity in recent years due to its almost 100% rooting ability during planting operations, increased planting time and high quality planting material [1].Cossack juniper (Juniperus sabina L.) is widely used in landscaping of the Volga region due to its high frost resistance, fast growth and high ornamental value [2,3,4]
The use of growth preparations can reduce the time of growing planting material to a standard size, increase the above-ground and root biomass and biometric indicators of plants, which favorably affects the growth of plants after transplanting to the object of landscaping
The studies showed a high efficiency of organic micronutrient complex (OMEC) effect on the biometric indicators of juniper Cossack seedlings, current seedling growth and biological mass of seedlings in air-dry state
Summary
Containerized planting material has been gaining popularity in recent years due to its almost 100% rooting ability during planting operations, increased planting time and high quality planting material [1].Cossack juniper (Juniperus sabina L.) is widely used in landscaping of the Volga region due to its high frost resistance, fast growth and high ornamental value [2,3,4]. Containerized planting material has been gaining popularity in recent years due to its almost 100% rooting ability during planting operations, increased planting time and high quality planting material [1]. Cultivation of Cossack Juniperus in containers allows to obtain high-quality planting material, with practically guaranteed 100% survival rate [5]. In container cultivation of juniper there is a certain spatial restriction of plant root system, so special attention is paid to timely replenishment of nutrients lost from container substrate. This is pointed out by many domestic and foreign researchers: Kupriyanova A.G. This is pointed out by many domestic and foreign researchers: Kupriyanova A.G. [6], Lyubimov V.B. [7], Kabanina S.V. [8], Whitcomb C.E. [9].
