Effect of Organic and Biostimulaters (Zytonic-F) on Growth and Yield of Two Lettuce Cultivars

Abstract

Seeds, plants, and soil are all treated with biostimulators, which can be either natural or synthetic. Seed and grain quality and yield can be improved by using these substances, which have a direct impact on plant growth. An experiment involving two lettuce varieties (local variety and Lceberg Crisphead Lettuce) was carried out to investigate the effect of two Biostimulaters combinations (poultry litter and Zytonic-F) fertilizer as a second factor, in order to study how organic fertilizers affect the growth and yield of two lettuce varieties due to a lack of studies involving organic fe. Observations showed that the local variety was responsible for a rise in vegetative growth, yield, and leaf phosphorous. Lceberg Crisphead Lettuce’s chlorophyll content was higher, but its nitrogen and potassium content in leaves was not significantly higher or lower than the local variety. However, fertilizer combinations were significantly different from the control. When it came to lettuce production and vegetative growth, the treatments F8 (poultry manure 20 tons. ha-1 + Zytonic-F 0.04g+10g of peat moos plant-1) had the greatest results for all parameters studied.
