Description
A shade house (75 %) experiment was carried out to determine the effect of different levels of NPK on the growth and development of Dieffenbachia sanguine (Jacq.) Schott plants at College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University during Kharif season of the year 2019-20 in a completely randomized design with seven treatments and replicated thrice. The results revealed that different levels of NPK significantly influenced the Dieffenbachia plant's growth and development. Among different inorganic fertilizer treatments, application of N:P: K (1:1:1) – 2 g per poly bag at 30 days interval (T1) significantly recorded maximum plant height (76.00 cm), the growth rate in respect of plant height at 45, 90 and 135 days interval (2.01, 2.50 and 3.07 cm/day respectively), plant spread (E-W) (59.00 cm), stem diameter (37.63 mm), and the number of leaves per plant (7.33).
