Abstract
An experiment was conducted to elucidate the effectiveness of different soil organic amendments and chemical fertilizers on floweringcharacteristics, cumulative yield and keeping quality of tuberose. The result of the study revealed that among all the organic manures and theircombinations with inorganic fertilisers, the best results were recorded in T9 [75% N (Urea) + 25% N (Mustard oil cake)] with respect toflowering parameters such as, earliness in flowering (47 days), length of spike (123 cm), rachis length (63.5 cm), bloom life (25.6 days); Yieldattributing parameters such as maximum flower number of florets per spike (59.3), individual floret weight (1.18 g), including number of spikeper plot (79.6) compared to other treatments. Keeping quality has less significant difference in days, rather it varied in hours; although theflowers harvested from theT9 [75% N (Urea) + 25% N (Mustard oil cake)] plot showed the maximum persistence i...
