4.0 Number of leaves Number of leaves increased with age from 4WAP to 10WAP. Application of 500g organomineral fertilizer gave the highest number of leaves, which was significantly different from application of 250g organomineral fertilizer (p≤0.05). Similarly, application of 2kg tithonia was significantly different from application of 1kg tithonia. There was no significant difference between the application of 2kg tithonia compost and 250g organomineral fertilizer (Table 2) 4.1 Vine length Vine length increased from 4WAP to 10WAP. Application of 250g organomineral fertilizer gave the longest mean vine length. There was no significant difference between the application of 250g orgarnomineral and 500g organomineral on the mean vine length (p≤0.05). Conversely, there was significant difference between application of 1kg and 2kg tithonia base compost. However, there was no significant difference between all the rates of application between 7WAP and 9WAP until the 10WAP (p≤0.05) (Table 3) 4.2 Number of tendrils Application of 500g organomineral fertilizer gave the highest number of tendrils, but was not significantly different from application of 2kg tithonia fertilizer (p≤0.05). Application of 250g organomineral gave a significantly higher difference from application of 1kg tithonia. However, there was no ssignificant difference between application of 1kg tithonia and the control (p≤0.05). (Table 4)
4.3 Fresh weight Application of 500g organomineral gave the highest biomass yield, which was significantly different from application of 250g organomineral fertilizer (p≤0.05). Conversely, there was no significant difference between the application of 500g organomineral and 2kg tithonia base compost fertilizer. However, all fertilizer application rates were significantly different from the control (p≤0.05) (Table 5) 4.4 Dry weight Application of 500g and 250g organomineral did not differ significantly with respect to dry weight. (p≤0.05). Similarly, There was no significant difference between the application of 1kg and 2kg tithonia base compost fertilizer. However, all application rates were significantly different from the control experiment (p≤0.05) (Table 6)
