The Influence of Slow-Release Fertilizers on the Growth, Flowering, and the Content of Macro- and Micronutrients in the Leaves of <i>Cyclamen persicum</i> Mill.
The influence of selected fertilizer within a 6-month period of operation was assessed: Basacote Plus <sup>6M</sup>, Osmocote Plus <sup>6M</sup>, Plantacote Plus <sup>6M</sup>. Plants grown in the substrate without slow-release fertilizer, which were supplied with...
