Abstract


Investigations were undertaken to study the pattern of uptake of N, P and K by Chrysanthemum indicum) CV. Yellow in the field as influenced by their application, at different levels. The trend of uptake of N, P and K was similar. There was high uptake at pre-bloom stage and a gradual but slight increase there after. The major nutrients were stored in pre-bloom stage at a high level to be utilised for the subsequent deve- ment and production of chrysanthemum flowers. The uptake of Ca and Mg was higher at the flowering and post-bloom stages.
