Abstract
Background: Lettuce cultivation, known for its high germination potential, can benefit significantly from soil amendment practices like biochar application. This study investigates the influence of varying biochar application rates (30 t/ha, 15 t/ha, and 7.5 t/ha) and particle sizes (≤0.5 mm and ≥2 mm), derived from a blend of bamboo culm sheath and coconut husk, on lettuce seed germination and leaf morphology.
KeyWord
germination index; inorganic fertilizer; mean germination time; soil pH; sustainable agriculture
