Abstract

The study entitled “Knowledge Management on the Use of Different Flower Inducers on the Growth of Flowering Plants Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla)” was conducted to find out which among the flower inducers used will promote higher number of shoots of Hydrangea macrophylla; to determine its effects on the height and quality of blooms of Hydrangea.The four flower inducers used in the study which correspond also to the four treatments were: A-Byfolan, B-Crop giant C- Turton, and D-Siam.Treatment E was the control treatment.Based on the results of the study, different flower inducers significantly increase the final height wherein plants sprayed with Crop giant significantly were the tallest while the untreated plants were significantly the shortest. Furthermore, the different flower inducers used in the study have no significant influence on the average number of shoots per plant, average number of flowers and the biggest full bloom flowers.
