Abstract
The research was conducted in the fieds (farms) of institute of Technology -Haweeja –the province of Kirkuk the. Plants of Hibiscu ssabdariffa L(karkade) were sparyed by Amino Quelant ;kelpak and Totalgro after being planted for a duration of one month with the foliar fertilizers in order to improve the vegetative growth of the plants and increase its production (Walnuts) as well . Amino Quelant has been sprayed in a concentration of (1,2,3,ml.liter-1) and kelpak -40 (1,2,3,mi.liter-1) and Totalgro(1,2,3,)each individually and once every three weeks complete Randomized Blocks Design was used in this study which consists of nine treatments in addition to control treatment. The results showed that all foliar fertilizers have caused a significant increase whenever concentration used in the plant height was increased , number of branches per plant and leaf area ,especially with Tatalgro treatment (3g.liter-1) as it results in an increase of 89%,20%,42.50%and 13.09%of the above characters respectively . the number and weight of fruit (Walnuts)and content of leaves of the Totalgro elements has been increased in all fertilizers treatment as the increase in plant showed an 14.60%increase of plants yield with Totalgro treatment(3gm.liter-1) as well as increased in Anthocyanin pigment and vitamin C in fruits
