Commercial Floriculture

Field preparation and spacing

• The field should be ploughed thoroughly and brought to a fine tilth.
• About 10-15 tones of well-decomposed farmyard manure may be incorporated in the soil at the time of soil preparation.
• In areas receiving high rainfall the seedlings should be planted on ridges to avoid chances of Fusarium wilt.
• A general spacing of 30 x 30 cm may be optimum for recommendation.
