Abstract:
An experimental study was conducted at the Department of Horticulture, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, MPUAT, Udaipur. The experiment comprised three replications with four chemical treatments; MH @ 100, 200, and 300 ppm, SADH @ 100, 200, and 300 ppm, CCC @ 100, 200, and 300 ppm, and ethrel @ 100, 200, and 300 ppm (Water spray). The lower SADH concentration of 100 ppm resulted in better results in terms of bulb per plant, bulb weight/plant, clump weight per plant, durability of spike, duration of flowering, longevity of 2nd floret and vase life. After result of the present experiment we concluded that, the growth retardant SADH @ 100 ppm concentration is recommended for application in tuberose for bulb yield and quality spike with extended vase life after harvest.
