“…The combined application between sand and clay soil provides adequate nutrients for I. edulis seedlings and enhancements both the physical and biological properties of growing media and water uptake capacity with its content from nutrients which reflected on increase metabolic processes efficiency and improving the leaves mineral content of the seedlings. Sarhan et al (2017) showed that the highest leaf contents of chlorophyll a, b, leaf N, P, and K % were obtained from the most suitable media (sand + clay at 1:1 v/v). Also, Abd El ghafour et al (2009) revealed that all chemical fertilization treatments increased N, P, and K percent in leaves as compared with control plants.…”

This study was carried out during the 2019 and 2020 seasons at the Agricultural Research Station of Al-Marashda to study the effect of three types of growing media and four levels of NPK fertilization on the growth characteristics and chemical composition of the seedlings of Inga edulis trees. The experiment comprised four NPK treatments; 0 (control), 1.5, 3, and 4.5g NPK/ pot. The applied growing media; sand, clay, and sand: clay (1:1 v/v). It was set in a split-plot design with four replicates; each contained four plastic pots. The main plot included the three growing media, the subplot included the four mineral fertilization treatments; to give 12 treatments. It's obvious that planting of I. edulis seedlings in the sand: clay growing medium resulted in the highest values of growth parameters. Regarding the effects of the used treatments on the leaf content of nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, chlorophyll a & b, phenols, and flavonoids, it is clear that growing seedlings in the sand: clay mixture; with 4.5 g/ pot of NPK fertilization gives the highest values of these components. It can be concluded that to obtain vigorous seedlings with a high content of nutrients, phenols, and flavonoids of Inga edulis, they should be grown in a mixture of sand and clay (1: 1 v/v) with monthly fertilizing by 4.5 g/ pot of NPK.

“…Based on the post hoc test (Table 3) it is known, only F4 that has significantly different effects from the other 3 treatments (F1, F2, F3). This means that NPK-fertilizer had a significant effect on the kelor seedling's diameter growth and was significantly different from no fertilization treatment [16,17]. The post hoc test result is presented in Table 3.…”

“…But at 3 MAS, the value of F1 was significantly different from the others, the value is the lowest. Fertilization using low dose of NPK has a significant effect on the height variable of young plants or seedlings [13,14], but excessive fertilization will actually reduce the plant growth performance [15,16].…”

Kelor (Moringa oleifera) is a superfood that serves potential benefits as a highly nutritious food. The research on kelor in Riau, Indonesia, is still very rare. This study aimed to determine the effect of a combination between provenances and doses of NPK-fertilizer on the growth of kelor seedlings in the nursery. The study was conducted from March to June 2020 in Kuok, Kampar regency, Riau. It was a factorial trial arranged in a split-plot design with three replications. Two provenances from Riau and NTT were arranged as the main plot. Four level doses of NPK-fertilizer, 5 g, 7 g, 9 g, and 0 g, were arranged as the subplot. Seedling height, diameter, survival, number of leaves, and leaf colour were observed. The interaction between P2 and F2 had the best effect on diameter at 3 MAS, while P2 and F4 had the best effect on survival at 1 MAS. The dose of 5 g NPK tended to have a better effect on the height, the number of leaves, survival, and leaf colour at 1 MAS. To stimulate the diameter growth, additional doses of NPK can be given after the kelor seedling reaches a minimum age of 3 MAS.
