Abstract

Effect of different media on growth indexes of ornamental plants under system mist

Ali Salehi Sardoei and Parviz Rahbarian

An important factor in the growth medium of plants and chemical plants. native substrates can be used to improve plant performance. To evaluate the effect of growth medium on Ficus benjamina, Padanus sanderi, Rosmarinus officinalis experimental design was completely randomized with eight treatments and four replications were carried out in the research greenhouse of Islamic Azad University of Jiroft. Ficus benjamina, Padanus sanderi, Rosmarinus officinalis plants from vegetative characteristics were significantly different. Results showed that the mean media 50% peat moss + 25% sand + 25% perlite and 50% peat moss + 25% sand + 25% perlite has the highest average stem length 94.50, 40 and 62.50 cm was obtained from a statistically significant difference have showed. The highest number of branches in the bed 50% peat moss + 25% sand + 25% perlite, with a mean 29.25, and the lowest bed of 50% peat palm + 25% sand + 25% perlite with an average of 14, respectively, which showed a statistically significant difference. The highest number of Sucker/plant in the bed 100% peat palm, with a mean 8, the lowest bed of 100% peat moss with an average of 2, respectively, which showed a statistically significant difference. According to the results obtained in this study, due to economic problems and to use recovery agricultural waste, can palm waste as a suitable alternative to peat moss in the media popular culture Ficus benjamina, Padanus sanderi, Rosmarinus officinalis recommended, The study also determined that mixing the waste with peat palm healing characteristics such as increased porosity and water keep capacity is improve the nutritional condition of the product.
