EFFECT OF HUMIC ACID AND TRANSPLANTING CONTAINER SIZE ON GROWTH, QUANTITY AND QUALITY YIELD OF PLANT CABBAGE

The experiment was carried out at the field of During the growing season of 2010 2011. The aim was to study the effect of humic acid with threes concentration (0, 2.5 and 5 ml/litter) and two transplanting container size (7 , 10 cm) and the interaction treatments growth , quantity and quality yield of cabbage, The experiment design was arranged according to R.C.B.D with three replicates The results showed that adding humic acid with 5 ml/Litter caused significant increase in the growth parameters (the number of external leaves,chlorophyll percentage , leaf area , the Fresh weight for external and internal leaf , the percentage of dry matter for internal leaves). Meanwhile the big size of transplanting container caused a significant increase in the percentage of dry matter in the external leaves. The interaction treatment between the addition of humic acid with 5 ml/Litter and the big transplanting container size caused the best growth in the leaves , roots and added the highest production 34.23 T/hea.
