THE EFFECTS OF PLANTING DISTANCE AND POTASSIUM FERTILIZER QUANTITY ON YIELD AND SEED QUALITY OF HERBA SIEGESBECKIAE (SIEGESBECKIA ORIENTALIS L.) IN THANH HOA PROVINCE
Main Article Content
Abstract
The study focuses on the effect of planting distance and amount of potassium fertilizer on yield and seed quality of Herba siegesbeckiae. The experiment was designed in split-plot with 9 treatments and 3 replicates, of which the planting distance factor is the large plot and the fertilizer factor is the small plot with the corresponding symbols: K1: Plant distance 40 cm x 40 cm, K2: Plant distance 40 cm x 50 cm, K3: Plant distance 40 cm x 60 cm, P1: Applying 30 kg K2O /ha, P2: Applying 40 kg K2O/ha, P3: Applying 50 kg K2O /ha. The research results showed that the growth, development and seed yield indicators, the germination rate of hydrangea seeds tended to increase. The interaction between the planting distance of 40 cm x 50 cm and the amount of potassium fertilizer 50 kg K2O/ha gave the best growth and development parameters, the actual yield ranged from 1.53 to 1.78 quintals/ha, and the germination rate of seeds reached 85%, higher than other formulas at the significant probability level with LSD0.05.
