| Summary, etc. | The present study was undertaken at College of Forestry, Kerala Agricultural University, Vellanikkara, Thrissur to evaluate the effect of potting media containing garbage on the growth and vigour of teak (Tectana grandis Linn. F.) and mangiurn (Acacia mangium Willd) seedlings. The study revealed that when garbage, especially fresh garbage, was used as a component of potting media, no significant effect was observed on survival rate of seedlings of teak, but a high rate of mortality was observed in the case of mangium. The potting media containing soil, sand and cow dung in equal proportions produced the best results with regard to shoot growth parameters like height and girth. However, the potting media containing soil, sand and one month decomposed garbage also produced similar results which was on par with the best treatment. Teak seedlings registered higher root biomass, root spread and root number when grown in the media containing garbage especially one month decomposed garbage. Unlike teak, in the case of mangium the treatment soil, sand and cow dung in equal proportions was proved to be the best with regard to root growth parameters. In both teak and mangium, chlorophyll content was not found to be significantly influenced by any media. Seedlings grown in the media containing soil, sand and cow dung in equal proportions recorded higher uptake and concentration of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in the plant tissue when compared to all other treatments. This was true both ill the case of teak and mangrurn. In general, the treatments T3 (soil: sand: cow dung) and T6 (soil: sand: 1 month decomposed garbage) were proved to be better when compared to all other treatments. In many cases these two treatments were found to be on par. |
