ABSTRACT
RAMOS, LEONARDO A. Growth and Yield of Pickling Cucumber in Different Organic Media. Undergraduate Thesis, Bachelor of Science in Agriculture major in Horticulture, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2004. Adviser: Dr. Arnulfo C. Pascual.
The study was conducted at Farmer's Training Center, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from November 2003 to January 2004 to determine the most suitable organic amendment and garden soil mixture in growing pickling cucumber. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and three replications. The total area was 63 m2 and experimental pots were arranged at a distance of 1.0 m x 0.5 m. The study revealed that pickling cucumber grown in goat manure + ordinary garden soil mixture produced the highest number of fruits, weight of fruits per plant and the shortest number of days from transplanting to flower formation. Highly significant results were obtained from plants grown in organic media with regards to average number of marketable fruits produced and average weight of marketable fruits per plant. Non-significant result was obtained in both the average number and weight of non-marketable fruits per plant.
