Abstract:

The present investigation was carried out in the Experimental Farm, Department of Horticulture, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat for the year 2022-23 with a view to observe the effect of physico-chemical properties of rose (Variety Revival) grown in different media. The experiment was carried out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) consisting of nine treatment combinations, which were replicated thrice. The experimental findings revealed that the highest chlorophyll content of 0.90 mg/g FW and Net Assimilation Rate (0.047 mg/cm2/day) were found to be the highest in T8, which was at par with T7. The highest Leaf Relative Water Content (87.00%) and Leaf Area Duration (93.27 mg/cm2/day) were recorded for T8 followed by T7. So, the treatment combination T8 i.e. Loam soil + Sand + Vermicompost (10% substituted with Cocopeat) @ 1:1:1 (w/w) is the best growing media for rose in terms of physico-chemical properties of rose.
