Effect of NPK, Spacing and MH on Flower Yield of African Marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) CV. PNG. Singh Yatendra, Verma Paropkar, Verma J.P. Department of Horticulture, R.B.S. College, Bichpuri, Agra-283 105, (U.P.), India Abstract Field experiments were conducted to find out the effect of fertility level, spacing and MH in African marigold (Tagetes erecta L) cv. Pusa Narangi Gainda, during rainy season of 2000 and 2002. The optimum level of 40 g N + 20 g P2O5 + 20 g K2O/m2 (F2) gave the best results in respect of plant growth and flower yield and its attributes. Further, the plants grown at the widest spacing of 60 cm × 60 cm (S3) exhibited their best growth performance as well as flower yield per plant basis but length, size and fresh weight of each flower was at their maximum limit at intermediary plant spacing 45 cm × 45 cm (S2) even then the closest plant spacing 30 cm × 30 cm (S1) yielded more fresh weight of flowers per unit area. Besides, the application of MH at the rate of 750 ppm proved the best in respect of growth, yield and yield attributes. Top Keywords African marigold, fertility level, plant spacing, MH application.
