| Abstract:
Plant height was increased with Promalin treatment. A significantly higher number of leaves produced when oxalis bulbs were pre-treated with Super-bio. Also flowering was accelerated when bulbs were treated with Super-bio. Plant height was increased when grown in medium composed of vermiculite: perlite: peatmoss (1:1:1, v/v) and vermiculite. Weight of daughter bulb was significantly increased by vermiculite: perlite: peatmoss (1:1:1, v/v). Plant height and length of flower stalk were increased at 20℃ and 25℃ than room temperature. However, the number and weight of bulb were reduced when plants were cultivated at 25℃. Plant height and number of leaves were increased by shade level of 35, 55, and 75% as compared to natural light, however, the number of flowers was significantly increased. Total chlorophyll and chlorophyll a content of leaf were increased when oxalis was cultivated by shade level of 55 and 75%. Number of flowers and weight of bulb were increased by 50mg•L-1 GA3 and Promalin spray treatment. | |
