HINAHON, ANDRINA Y FERAER. Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, April 1991. "Effect of Different Levels of Phosphorus on the Growth and Flowering of Chrysanthemum". Adviser: Dr. Vicente G. Lontoc.
The study was conducted at the Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite from October 1990 to February 1991. The objectives were to determine the effects of different levels of phosphorus on the growth and flowering of chrysanthemum, and to identify the correct levels that would favorably influence the growth and flowering of chrysanthemum. A Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used in the study. It was composed of four treatments and three replications. The different treatments used in the study were as follows: Treatment 1 (control), Treatment 2 (40 grams of phosphorus per plant), Treatment 3 (60 grams of phosphorus per plant), and Treatment 4 (80 grams of phosphorus per plant). This was applied 35 days after trans-planting. The results of the study showed that the plants in Treatment 1 (control) gave the lowest mean in all para-meters studied. On the other hand, plants in Treatment 4 (80 grams of phosphorus per plant) gave the highest mean in all observations made. The results showed that application of 80 grams of phosphorus per plant significantly increased the height of plants, induced the early number of days from planting to flowering and increased the average fresh weight of flowers per plant, 128 days after planting. With these findings, it was suggested that 80 grams of phosphorus per plant should be applied to chrysanthemum to obtain better performance of the plant.
