Tomato plants grown on sand culture with analytical reagent culture solution had higher nutrient content of N P K Ca and Mg in their vegetative growth as compared with plants of commercial fertiliser culture solution. A significantly higher response was obtained in nutrient content P and Ca. Plants grown with commercial fertiliser solution had significantly higher chloride content. A similar increase in nutrient contents occurred on tomato roots and contents of N P K Ca Mg and ascorbic acid in tomato juice. The increase of plant dry weight root dry weight and yield of tomato grown with analytical reagent culture solution was 58 per cent 97 per cent and 200 per cent higher respectively over plants grown on fertiliser solution

Abstract

Tomato plants grown on sand culture with analytical reagent culture solution had higher nutrient content of N P K Ca and Mg in their vegetative growth as compared with plants of commercial fertiliser culture solution. A significantly higher response was obtained in nutrient content P and Ca. Plants grown with commercial fertiliser solution had significantly higher chloride content. A similar increase in nutrient contents occurred on tomato roots and contents of N P K Ca Mg and ascorbic acid in tomato juice. The increase of plant dry weight root dry weight and yield of tomato grown with analytical reagent culture solution was 58 per cent 97 per cent and 200 per cent higher respectively over plants grown on fertiliser solution
