EFFECT OF SPARYING FOLIAR NUTREINT ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF GARLIC Allium sativumL .

Abstract

The study was conducted in the field of .Horticulture. Dept ., college of Agriculture ,University of Baghdad- Abu Gharaib in growing season 2007- 2008 to in vestigate the influence of a foliar sprays of organic fertilizer , calcium and Total in growth and composed yield of garlic plants were sprayed three times starting from 30/1/2008 and period between them are two weeks .The treatment as arranged in ( RCBD ) with 3 replicate using ( L.S.D) to compete the differences between the treatment the experimental recruits was as follows : - The cloves of the superior treatment poly amine at a rate 2 g / 1 and Total fertilizer at a rate l g / l (M2) which gave the highest value plant highest (73.7cm / plant ) ,leaf area a per plant ( 1084.3 cm2 ) and dry weight of vegetative parts ( 2t,2 g / plain) as compared with the control treatment which gave lowest value (56.3c m / plant) , (402.+cm2 ) and (8.8g / plant ) respectively. A significant increases in this treatment ( M 2) bulb diameter ( 5.9cm / bulb) , number of bullbat per bulb ( 38. 7 bulble / bulb ) as compared with the control treatment (M0) ( 3.5 cm/ bulb ), (26.0 bulble/ bulb ) respectively. A significant increased influenced the yield which gave the highest total yield (4.8ton /ha) as compared with the control treatment (M0 ) which gave lowest ( 2.g ton / ha ) . The results showed that foliar sprays fertilizer Total at l g /1 (M7) significantly increased the number of leaves per plant ( 11.3 leave / plant ) , fresh weight of vegetative parts ( 85.9g / plant ) , dry weight of roots ( 8.9 g / plant ) percentage of vegetative part /root ( 5. 5 %) and increased diameter of bulb neck ( 1.7 cm ) as compared with the control treatment which gave lowest ( 6.6 leave / plant) , 4l.l g /plant) ,( 1.8 g/ plant) , ( 1.6 %) and ( 1.0c m / bulb ) respectively and did not differ significant treatment ( M7) with treatment ( M4) which gave highest average weight of bulblet ( 1.1g / bulblet) as compared with the control treatment ( M0 ) which gave the lowest ( 0.8 g / bulblet ) . Foliar sprays with poly amine at a rote of 2 .5 g /1 and, Total fertilizer at a rate of 1 g / l significant increases leaves connect of nitrogen upto (3.3% ) as compared the control treatment (M0 ) which gave lowest value of (1.0% ) . A significantly foliar with poly amine at a rate of 2.5 g /1 and calcium at a rate 2 .5 g / l and Total fertilizer at a rate 1 g /1 (M6 ) leave contact of phosphor up to ( 0.8 %) as compared with the control treatment( MO) which gave lowest value of ( 0.5 %) between treatments prays poly amine at a rate of 1.5g / 1 and Total fertilizer at rate l g / 1 ( M l ) as compared with ( 0.8 % ) in the control treatment.
