 ABSTRACT

The present investigation was carried out at the Model Floriculture Centre, Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, District Udham Singh Nagar (Uttarakhand) during April, 2010 to March, 2012 to find out suitable organic manures and biofertilizers for vegetative growth of tuberose var. Shringar. Maximum plant height at 90 days (45.10 cm) was recorded in treatment vermicomposting (2 kg/ m2) and the minimum plant height was obtained in treatment poultry manure (1 kg/ m2) (37.39). The treatment vermicompost (2 kg/ m2) recorded maximum number of leaves per plant (86.25). Minimum value was observed in treatment poultry manure (1 kg/ m2) (78.02) during both the years.

Key words: Vermicompost, Biofertilizers, Polyanthus Tuberosa, Organic Farming
