Growing Of Asiatic Lilium Under Agro-Climatic Condition Of Gujarat

From the two years of field study, it can be concluded that growing Asiatic lilium under different growing conditions the vegetative parameter i.e. plant height at 30 DAS, plant height at harvest and number of leaves were found better under 75 % green shade net condition, while the flowering parameter like days to first bud initiation, opening of flower, diameter of flower and shelf life were found better under 75 % black shade net condition. Whereas, the all the yield parameters were found better under open condition. In case of different growing media all vegetative and flowering parameters the media combination Cocopeat: Vermiculite:Perlite (7:2:1) found superior. Whereas, the yield parameters i.e. number of bulb, weight of bulb, number of daughter bulb were found better with Soil: Cocopeat: Vermiculite (5:3:2) combination.
