EFFECT OF PULSING SOLUTION, SIMULATE TRANSPORT AND HOLDING SOLUTION ON KEEPING QUALITY OF Gypsophila paniculata L. CV II PERFECTA II CUT FLOWERS
Pulsing cut Gypsophila paniculata L. cv • Perfecta' stem with only 5% of buds 0eren in STS 1:4 mM for 30 min or GA;, at 25 ppm for over night before storage at 5 C for several durations as simulate transport reduced days required to marketable stage and wilting flowers during shelf life period. Also these treatments promoted buds opening, prolonged display life, Improved water uptake and water balance and maintaining carbohydrate level at the end of vase life as compared to Ki at 5 ppm and control (D.W) treatments, respectively.
The increased storage period was negatively effective on most parameters studied. On the other hand, display life after the end of storage period at 5 0 C for 15 days was recorded (12.45 and 12.72 days) as compared to (13.63 and 13.65 days) for the control without any treatment in the two seasons, respectively. These led to say that, this period (15 days) is suitable for maintaining price of gypsophila cut flowers. Maintaining quality of cut flowers at ambient environmental of lab at 18°C ± 2 and 50- 55 RH after the end of storage periods was by holding flowers in holding solution containing sucrose + 8-HQS + Tween -20. This treatment showed highly significant in enhancing parameters of gypsophila cut flowers, during observation time in lab.
