Abstract

This study examined the possibility of using modified green waste compost （GWC） as a cultural substrate component for growth of Asplenium nidus and Anthurium andraeanum. Culture substrates were prepared by mixing modified GWC and peat at the volumn rates of 0% to 100%, 20% to 80%, 40% to 60%, 60% to 40%, 80% to 20%, and 100% to 0%. The study was conducted by 6 treatments, each with 3 replications. Results showed that GWC in the culture substrates increased bulk density and water-holding porosity（P＜0.05 according to LSD test）, but decreased total porosity and aeration porosity（P＜0.05 according to LSD test）. In most cases, GWC in the culture substrates reduced the organic carbon content（P＜0.05 according to LSD test） and increased pH, electrical conductivity, and nutritive elements（P＜0.05 according to LSD test）. Compared to a peat control group, the most Asplenium nidus plants were obtained from 60% and 80% GWC-based substrates with increased fresh weight （11.9%-51.2%）, plant weight （4.1%-5.1%）, canopy （31.7%-43.1%）, and chlorophyll （18.1%-14.8%）（P＜0.05 according to LSD test）. Also, compared to a peat control group, the most Anthurium andraeanum plants were obtained from 60% GWC based substrates with increased fresh weight （27.0%）, plant weight （23.7%）, canopy （13.1%）, and chlorophyll （10.2%）（P＜0.05 according to LSD test）. The findings suggest that green waste compost can replace partly peat surrogate in substrates for Anthurium andraeanum and Asplenium nidus cultivation. ［Ch, 2 fig. 3 tab. 15 ref.］
