Abstract

Six levels of nitrogen were used to determine the appropriate level of N for cut chrysanthemum grown in soil less culture under lowland conditions. Chrysanthemums require high level of N for early maturity and vase life. However, higher N did not increase flower size. The carbohydrate content increased with high N levels. Based on our data, chrysanthemum grown in soil less culture under lowland conditions require between 200 to 300 mgL1 of N for shorter production period and possibly improved vase life as well.
