Enhancing Growth and Quality of Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) through Foliar Application of Plant Growth Regulators under Eastern U.P. Conditions, India
Research shows improved yield and quality traits in cabbage using gibberellic acid and naphthaleneacetic acid, indicating effective application methods.
Key Points
Cabbage growth improved significantly with foliar application of plant growth regulators, especially GA₃ and NAA.
GA₃ at 90 ppm achieved the highest metrics for plant growth and quality, including maximum plant height and chlorophyll concentration.
Randomized block design utilized to assess nine treatment combinations with statistically significant variations across treatments.
Appropriate concentrations of GA₃ and NAA notably enhance cabbage productivity, suggesting potential benefits for commercial cultivation.
