Abstract:
The current research was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) in combination of 12 treatments containing 3 soil types (vertisol, alfisol, inceptisol) each in combination with 4 media types (cocopeat, fly ash, decomposed rice husk, undecomposed rice husk) and 3 control treatments (sole soils), altogether 15 treatments replicated thrice for analyzing the efficient potting media for quality production of potted chrysanthemum. The best desirable values for parameters including days taken to first bud appearance, total flowers plant-1, flower diameter, flower weight and flower yield was observed in T2 (vertisol+cocopeat). The present study revealed that as far as potting media is concerned, T2 (vertisol+cocopeat) is found to be superior and may be recommended for pot culture of chrysanthemum.
