UMALI, GERTRUDE Fe, Applied Research Iv ( Agricultural Science Curriculum); Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, March,1990, " Growth Performance of Anthurium as Influenced by Varying Amounts and Frequency of Application of Chicken Tea Manure." Adviser: Mr. Alejandro C. Mojica
This study, “ Growth Performance of Anthurium as Influenced by Varying Amounts and Frequency of Application Of Chicken Tea Manure," was conducted from May 1,1989 to November 20,1989 at Buna Lejos, Indang, Cavite to find out which level or amount of chicken tea manure and frequency of its application will enhance the growth of anthurium. This also aimed to study the interaction effect between the two factors, One hundred and eighty anthurium plants ( Kaumana variety) were distributed in a randomized complete block design (RCED) with three replications and twelve treatment combinations, Since this study was a factorial one, there were two factors Vie: Factor A- frequency of fertilizer— application~ weekly, every two weeks, every three weeks and Factor B ~ amount or level of fertilizer - control, 50 ml, 100 ml and 200 ml.
Frequency of fertilizer application affected the general growth of the plants through the increase in the average plant height, average leaf length and width, average stem diameter, average number of leaves and flower formation. Likewise, the amount of fertilizer applied increased the average plant height, average leaf length and width, average stem diameter, average number of leaves and flower formation. However, the two factors did not exhibit any interaction effect.
The best treatments that enhanced the growth of anthurium were those applied frequently at a greater level or amount, that is, application weekly at the amount of two hundred ml per plant produced healthy and vigorous plants.
