Effect of different levels of Nanomax (4% NPK) and Polyfeed (19:19:19 NPK) on Coreopsis tinctoria

Abstract

An experiment entitled “Effect of different levels of Nanomax (4% NPK) and Polyfeed (19:19:19 NPK) on Coreopsis tinctoria” was conducted at Department of Floriculture and Landscaping, College of Agriculture, Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Odisha during 2018-19 and 2019-20. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design in pots, with 7 treatments and 3 replications. The treatment comprises of 3 levels of Nanomax (4% NPK) viz. 3, 4 and 5 ml/L; 3 levels of Polyfeed (19:19:19 NPK) viz. 3, 4 and 5 g/L and one absolute control with no foliar spray of fertilizers. From the result of 2 year research work it was concluded that the treatment receiving 5 g/L of Polyfeed (19:19:19 NPK) showing significant result among the rest of the treatment used with respect to vegetative parameters, flowering parameters and flower quality parameters.
