Abstract: The study "Response of Gladiolus to Different Rates of Complete Fertilizer" was conducted in Kayquit, Indang, Cavite from November, 1980 to February, 1981. The objectives of the study were: (1) to determine the effects of different rates of complete fertilizer; (2) to determine which of the different rates of complete fertilizer (14-14-14) would give better effects on the growth, floral charactersistics and cormel production of Gladiolus. A 100 square-meter field was plowed and harrowed three times at an interval of one week to loosen the soil for better aeration. The field was divided into four equal plots to represent the replication. Bach replication was subdivided into four equal blocks for the treatments. A Randomized Complete Block Design was used. Different rates of complete fertilizer (14-14-14) were used such as: 500 kg./ha. (Treatment 1), 450 kg./ha. (Treatment 2), 400 kg./ha. (Treatment 3) and 300 kg./ha. (Treatment 4). Based on the results of this study, Gladiolus, applied with 400 kg./ha. produced the tallest plant with heaviest and highest number of cormels and also the longest spikes of flowers.
