Abstract
This study investigated the effects of chemical fertilizer (20-20-20) and two different organic fertilizers (compost and wood ash) applications on eggplant seedling quality. Peat was used as the growing medium. Some seedling quality parameters such as stem diameter, seedling height, number of leaves, leaf chlorophyll content, leaf area, root length and total seedling dry weight were investigated. In general, although applying chemical fertilizer is the best value in the seedling quality parameters, it was determined that statistically (P<0.05), similar values were obtained in applying compost. As a result, it was determined that compost fertilizer applications could compete with compound fertilizers. Compost application, which stands out regarding seedling dry weight, leaf chlorophyll content and leaf area values, has been determined to provide height control in seedlings compared to chemical fertilizer application.
