Abstract

Four doses of the fertilizer were evaluated. 15-20-25 were 2, 3, 4 and 5 grams per liter of water plus a control. The objective was to determine the best dose of 15-20-25 to favor the flowering of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana. The results showed that the variable Chlorophyll content at 90 days the best treatment was No. 4, with 54.95 units SPAD, with a significant difference of treatment 5 that was the control with 44.64. In the stem diameter variable, the treatment that had the best result was treatment 2 with 0.741 cm, having a significant difference with the control. In the variable number of leaves, the Treatment that had the highest number was 4 with a total of 20 leaves. In this sense we see that the treatment that worked best and that obtained higher chlorophyll content, larger stem diameter and number of leaves was treatment No. 4, with a dose of 5 grams per liter, where vigorous plants could be observed of thick leaves and dark green color due to the high nitrogen content registered in the plant, being also those that first started the flowering stage and better quality of floral bouquet.
