The effect waste palm tree with mixing it with sand and perlite on growth indices Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.

To evaluate the effect of substrates on the growth of the medicinal plant, Rosemary, an experiment in the completely randomized design with eight treatments and four replications conducted in order to Rosemary plant growth. Plant substrates are critical factors in plants growth and their chemical components. Rosemary plants demonstrated significant differences in terms of vegetative growth properties. The maximum chlorophyll indicator was in the palm peat growing medium on the average of 1.54 milligram per liter and the minimum was in the coco chip growing medium on the average of 0.74 milligram per liter. The palm peat growing medium statistically demonstrated significant difference in compare to peat moss, coco peat, and coco chips mediums. The maximum values of chlorophyll a, b, as well as total chlorophyll, carotenoids and the total photosynthesis pigments acquired in the medium containing, peat moss 50% + sand 25% + perlite 25%. The palm peat appeared the maximum number of branches on the average of 6 and coco peat, the minimum numbers of branches on the average of 2, which from this point of view appeared significant statistical difference with coco peat. The palm peat medium containing, palm peat 50% + sand 25% + perlite 25%, due to the lower expense, characteristics such as very low pH-value and appropriate absorption of available water, is a suitable substrate for all plants in particular Rosemary. The application of traditional and locally prepared substrates elevated Rosemary growth.
