Wpływ egzogennych substancji chemicznych na trwałość i dekoracyjność kwiatów ciętych goździka szklarniowego [Effect of exogenously applied chemicals on keeping qualities of cut carnations]

Abstract


Use of holding solutions containing sucrose (5%) and an antisepUc (AgNO3 30 ppm, 8-HQS 200 ppm) increased the vase-life and the flower diameter of cut carnation as compared to flowers placed in water. Similar effect of the solution of glucose (5%) plus 8-HQS (300 ppm) and CCC (300 ppm) was observed. However, flowers did not benefit from the use of Flovit. Improvement in flower keeping qualities as influenced by the solutions used in the experiments was due to better plant tissue hydratation and dry matter accumulation.
