Abstract: MANALO , PHILIP G. , "Growth and Early Fruiting Response of Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) Using Different Starter Solution," Laboratory School, School of Education of the Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, March 1996. Adviser: Prof. Josefino A. Vidallo The study entitled "Growth and Early Fruiting Response of Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) Using Different Starter Solution" was conducted to determine the effect of different starter solution will promote earlier and better growth and produce the best yield results. There were 192 one-month old tomato seedlings used in the study. The seedlings were distributed in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four treatments and four replications. 'Ille following treatments were used in the study: To - control (No starter solution), Tl - Ammonium sulphate (21-0-0), T2 - Ammonium phosphate (16-20-0), and T3 - Complete fertilizer (14-14-14). The results of the study revealed that starter solution greatly affect the growth and Yield of tomato plants. Treatment 2, Ammonium phosphate (16-20-0) was found as the effective starter solution because it achieved the tallest height, heaviest weight, most number of leaves, longest stem, heaviest weight of fruits, most number of marketable fillets, least number of non-marketable fruits, and greatest yield per hectare. Tie largest size of liquids was attained on Treatment 3 which was not significantly different to Treatment 2, which achieved the second largest size of fruits.
