Growth and nutrient status of olive plants as influenced by foliar potassium applications

Olive (Olea europaea L.) plants were sprayed (one, two or three times) with nutrient solutions containing KCl, KNO3 and K2SO4 with the same amount of K (0, 1, 2 and 3% w/v). The weight of the plants was unaffected by salt type, number of sprays or K concentration of salts, whereas the dry matter per...
