GROWTH AND YIELD OF CABBAGE AS INFLUENCED BY GIBBERELLIC ACID AND POTASSIUM

Abstract

An experiment was conducted in the Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from November 2013 to March 2014 to find out the effect of Gibberellic acid and Potassium on growth and yield of cabbage. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The experiment considered two factors; Factor A: different levels of GA 3; such as G 0 = 0 ppm, G 1 = 105 ppm, G = 125 ppmand G 3 = 140 ppm and Factor B: different levels of Potassium; such as K = 0 kg MoP/ha, K G 2 1 =125 kg MoP/ha and K 2 =150 kg MoP/ha. In case of GA gave the maximum gave the minimum thickness 0 gave the maximum thickness 2 gave the minimum thickness 0 gave the maximum thickness 0 K gave the minimum thickness 3 0 and 150 kg MoP/ha is the best combination for cabbage production successfully.
