Abstract :
The influence of biostimulant and substrate volume on scarletsage transplants growth and development was examined in this investigation. Therewas one cultivar of scarlet sage used in trial which was transplanted in pots oftwo different volumes. Plants were treated with biostimulant (Radifarm) inconcentration of 0.25% or left untreated (control). During the trial, root and abovegroundfresh and dry mass were recorded. Treatment with biostimulant andbigger substrate volume showed good results by increasing investigatedparameters. Investigation shows how biostimulant application to scarlet sagetransplants production improves growth and development of root and abovegroundmass which is important for faster plant adaptation to stress duringtransplanting.
