Abstract
Abstract .. An experiment was conducted at the green house of Research station of Agricultural experiments . The experiment included twenty four treatments resulted from the interaction between four treatments i.e. F1 control ; and F2 Garlic extract ( Conc 40mlL-1 ) ; F3 liquorice root extract ( Conc. 3.5 gm L-1 ) and F4 plant fert. ( 1.5gmL-1 ), and three treatments i.e. Zn1 control ; Zn2 (0.25 gmkg-1 soil ) ; and Zn3 ( 0.40 gmkg-1 soil ) of ZnSO4 . RCBD was used with three replicates . Results showed that the highest vegetative growth.values ( plant height , root length , leav Fr. Wt and Dry Wt . root Fr. Wt and Dry Wt . , shoot Fr. Wt and Dry Wt . , leav No. and Branch No. was achieved from spraying with liquorice root extract , Meanwhile , the least values for the above mentioned parameters were noticed with control without ZnSO4 . There was a significant interaction between the two factors .
