Abstract: | A study was undertaken at the Pineapple Research Centre, Vellanikkara during 1976—78 ye^irs to 3Ssess the influence of growth regulator 100 ppm ethrel solution containing 2% urea and 0,04# calciu.n carbonate in inducing flowering of pineapple plants raised from suckers and crowns. The crowns were not found to be as vigorous as suckers in growth chaiacteristics. Crowns the age group 17 to 20 months can be induced to flower earlier and uniformly. For getting better fruit weight, it is preferable to apply growth regulator on 20 month old crowns. |
