Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2018 in Departmental Research Field of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj on heading type of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. Pekinensis)/ napa cabbage. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with ten treatments replicated thrice. The experiment consisted of Bio-char (10t/ha, 20t/ha and 30t/ha) made from rice husk and Photosynthetic bacteria, Rhodopseudomonas paulistris (66L/ha, 132L/ha and 198L/ha). The variety, All Season No. 2 was used for sowing. The seeds were sown at a row to row distance of 60 cm and plant to plant distance of 45 cm. In this investigation the result revealed that T5 (PSB 132L + Biochar 30t) was found to the best in respect of plant height (33.59 cm) at 60 DAT, days to head initiation (28.07 days), head net weight (2.25 kg), head size (519.63 cm3), compactness (18.51), TSS content (5.27 °Brix), moisture content (96.07%) and Vitamin C content (50.30 mg/100g).


Keywords: Chinese cabbage, Napa cabbage, Bio-char, Photosynthetic bacteria, Organic farming, Vermicompost, Growth parameters and Yield parameters
