Manuring & Fertilization
Tuberose is a gross feeder and responds well to
the application of organic and inorganic manures.
Apart from FYM (20 tonnes/ha), a fertilizer dose
of 200 kg of N, 50 kg P2O5
and 70 Kg K2O per hectare is recommended,
of which 100 kg N and entire quantity of P &
K is applied as a basal dose. The balance N is
given in two split doses at thirty days interval.
However under saline conditions, 77 kg of N, 51
kg P2O5 and 36 kg K2O
per hectare is found to be effective.
Use of Growth
Regulators:
The application of CCC at 5000ppm and GA3
at 1000ppm induces early flowering, increased
flower-stalk production and improves the quality
of flowers.
