Abstract

An experiment was conducted at the farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka-1207 during the period from October, 2010 to March, 2011 to study the effect of planting time and spacing on the growth and yield of cabbage. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications and includes three different planting times; T1 (7th November), T2 (21st November) and T3 (5th December) in 2010, and three different spacing; S1 (60 cm×40 cm), S2 (60 cm×45 cm) and S3 (60 cm×50 cm). The results of the study revealed significant differences in terms of plant height, number of leaves plant-1, number of non-wrapper leaves plant-1, weight of plant, fresh weight of head plant-1, diameter of head, thickness of head, dry matter of head plant-1 and moisture content percentage. The highest fresh weight of head plant-1 (1.36 kg) was recorded from T1S1 and the lowest fresh weight of head plant-1 (0.4 kg) from T3S3. The spacing (60 cm×50 cm) and 21st November planting time were found suitable for growth and yield of cabbage.
