Effect of Pre-Storage GA3 Pulsing on Keeping Quality of Gladiolus Spikes
Pre-storage pulsing of gladiolus spikes with a solution containing 20% sucrose and 400 mg/l aluminium sulphate [Al2(SO4)3.16H2O] significantly improved vase life, floret size and per cent opening of florets. The effect was significantly enhanced with addition of GA3 @ 100 mg/l. Spikes pulse-treated...
