Nutrient Release Pattern and Greenhouse-Grown Swiss Chard Response to Biochar Inoculated with Vermicast
Figure 3
Leaf greenness and anthocyanin content of Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) cv. Rhubarb chard as affected by biochar alone (Bioc), deionized water-inoculated biochar (DWB), solid vermicast-inoculated biochar (SVB), vermicast tea-inoculated biochar (VTB), and Promix-BX alone (Pro-BX). Lowercase and uppercase alphabetical letters represent mean separation by the least significant difference (α = 0.05) at the first (1) and the second (2) harvests, respectively. Vertical lines on bars represent standard error of the means.
