| dc.description.abstract | An experiment (Completely Randomized Design) was set up to determine the effects of Clay Pot Sub-surface Irrigation(CPSI) with spacing; 15x15cm, 20x20cm and 30x30cm.Control treatments were Watering can Irrigation(WCI) with the same spacing as above Treatments were replicated three times given a total of 18 experimental units. Eighteen large enamel basins of 50/20cm (diameter/height) were filled with good topsoil and clay pot buried neck deep in each of the basins. Seedlings were planted in all the eighteen basins. Five Hundred million of wastewater was applied daily to plants in each container having either clay pot or watering can treatment. Plant height increased from 2.50 to 4.25 cm within 6 Weeks after Transplanting (WAT) under CPSI and only increased from 2.14 to 2.99 cm under WCI. The CPSI also supported better leave growing and fresh weight. The fresh weight of lettuce increased almost two fold under 15x15 cm spacing compared 20x20 and 30x30 cm. | en_US |
