The Effect of Organic Media and Fertilization Method on the Yield and Nutrients Uptake of Bellis perennis L.

In order to investigate the effect of growth media and nutritionmethod on the growth of bellis perennis l. and nutrients uptake, a factorialexperiment was conducted with two factors: growth media (municipalwaste compost, azolla compost, tea wastes compost) and nutrition method(without fertilizer, soil application, foliar spray) in comparison to thecontrol medium (60% soil + 20% manure + 10% composted leaves + 10%sand) based on rcd with 45 treatment and three replications. plant growthindices during growth and after plant harvest were measured. the totalnitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc andmanganese were measured in the shoot of plant. the results showed that theheight of plant increased in medium control, municipal waste compost,azolla through foliar spray and soil application of fertilizer. the growthmedium control, municipal compost and azolla increased plant height,shoot dry weight and flower number and uptake of nitrogen, potassium,zinc, calcium, iron and magnesium in plant shoot.
