Abstract:
Studies were conducted on the flowering parameters of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) varieties under protected condition influenced by NPK nutrients through foliar spray. The experiment consisted of three varieties with five levels of fertilizers and it was laid out in Factorial Completely Randomized Design (FCRD) with three replications. The results of present investigation on flowering parameters revealed that variety Don Pedro Rapido with nutrient level 6000 N: 4000 P2O5: 2000 K2O ppm recorded significantly maximum harvesting span of flowers, fresh and dry weight of single cut flower, number of petals per flower, minimum days taken to flower bud initiation and minimum days taken to open of first flower.
