Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Impact of micronutrients spray on quality flower production of Dendrobium orchid cv. Sonia Hisakula under shade net conditions” was conducted at the “Orchidarium”, Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad during the year 2014-15. This experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design with thirteen treatments viz. T0-Control, T1- CuSO4 @ 300ppm, T2- ZnSO4 @ 300ppm, T3- Boron @ 200ppm, T4- FeSO4 @ 300ppm, T5- CuSO4 @ 600ppm, T6- ZnSO4 @ 600ppm, T7- Boron @ 400ppm, T8- FeSO4 @ 600ppm, T9-CuSO4 @ 1000ppm, T10- ZnSO4 @ 1000ppm, T11- Boron @ 800ppm & T12- FeSO4 @ 1000ppm with three replications. The results revealed that length of plant, number of leaves per plant, number of roots per plant, root length, leaf area and number of new shoots per plant had found significantly superior with the treatment FeSO4 @ 1000ppm. However, total number of spikes yield per plant per year, average number of florets per spikes, average length of spikes and vase life had observed best with treatment Boron @ 800ppm.
