Effect of biostimulants application on growth and yield of corm and cormels in cut gladiolus CV. Arka amar


Author(s): Ravikumar Bolagam and Seenivasan Natarajan

Abstract: The present investigation was to find out the effect of biostimulants on gladiolus with reference to corm and cormel yield attributes. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design replicated thrice with eleven treatments. The results on corm and cormel yield parameters revealed that among different pre soaking and foliar sprays of biostimulants at 30 and 45 days after corm sprouting, Humic acid at 4ml/l i.e T8 resulted in significantly maximum corm weight, corm diameter (5.13 cm), cormel size (2.46 cm), maximum number of corms plant-1, higher number of corms plot-1, higher number of corms ha-1, Further maximum cormels plant-1(18.56), cormels yied plot-1 and cormels yield ha-1 was also recorded in this treatment. It was concluded that application of pre soaking and foliar sprays with Humic acid at 4ml/l appears to be an optimum treatment for enhancing growth and yield of corm and comels in cut gladiolus.
