Vermiwash exhibited growth promoting effects on the exomorphological
characters such as plant height, length and
diameter of the internode, number of leaves, leaf surface area,
root length, wet and dry weight of the shoot and root of
Abelmoschusesculentus21. Among the various foliar treatments
used in the study, 15% vermiwash showed growth enhancing
effects followed by 10% vermiwash, Gibberelic acid (100 g/ml)
and Naphthalene acetic acid (100 g/ml). Maximum root length
and plant biomass was recorded in 15% vermiwash. These
results clearly indicate that vermiwash can be exploited as a
potent biofertiliser and foliar spray.
