Abstract

The study aims to study the effects of organic fertilizers on growth and quality of choy. The planning experiment was a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 3 replications and 6 treatments as follow: 1) egg shell + salted egg shell 2) egg shell + salted egg shell + salted egg white 3) egg shell + salted egg shell + cow dung 4) egg shell + salted egg shell + organic waste 5) chemical fertilizer 15-15-15 and 6) control unit. The results showed that the treatment with egg shell + salted egg shell + cow dung was the most growing suitable for choy. Choy resulted from this treatment had the height of 28.17±2.02 cm, the number of leaves of 6.67±1.53 leaves/plant, the leave length of 13.50±1.00 cm, the leave width 8.23±2.04 cm, the root length of 9.00±2.00 cm, the fresh weight of 11.62±2.00 g and the dry weight of 1.23±0.47 g.
