Abstract
The chemical fertilizers caused many problems in our planet like soil and underground water pollution, beside the residuals of these fertilizers in the edible fruits or the ornamental plants. Thus, two seeds extract (moringa and fenugreek) were evaluated for their ability as biotic elicitors in the fertilization process of cineraria plants under different concentrations (0, 50, 75 and 100), each alone or in combinations on some vegetative growth, flowering parameters and chemical contents of this pot plant. Results cleared that combination between 50% MSE+ 75% FSE produced the shortest and compact plants. Moreover, the interaction between 75% MSE+ 50% FSE recorded the heaviest fresh and dry weights, reduced number of days for starting flowering and increased the inflorescence crown diameter. In addition, most of the highest concentration extracts between both 100% MSE + 100% FSE, 100% MSE + 75% FSE and 75% MSE + 100% FSE tabulated highest N and K% in cineraria leaves. Finally, using 50% MSE individually or in combination with 50% FSE enhanced the pigments content (total chlorophyll and carotenoids).
