Summary
Three fertilizer formulations namely; (M), a local formulation commonly used by farmers, the recommended Cooper standard (CS), and Benoit (BEN) suggested for the lower cost of production were evaluated in combination with four levels of pyroligneous acid (0, 10, 20 and 30%) for enhancement of growth, fruit yield and quality of rockmelon in soilless culture. The addition of 30% pyroligneous acid was toxic as most plants died at this concentration.
