Standardization of nitrogen application for potted Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. kikiobiory

The present investigation was carried out to standardize nitrogen application for standard potted Chrysanthemum morifolium cv. Kikiobiory at Department of Floriculture and Landscaping, PAU, Ludhiana during the year 2015-16. Six treatments of nitrogen viz. 0, 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mg/pot were ap...
