DATA ETLINGERA COCCINEA POTTED GROWTH.xlsx

The data consists of growth and biomass data of greenhouse-grown potted <em>Etlingera coccinea</em> (Zingiberaceae) under fertilising and watering treatments. The experiment was a two-factor factorial design with four replicates. The blocks were assigned watering interval treatments as follows: (i) watering 500 ml, interval every two days (W2), (ii) watering 500 ml, interval every four days (W4). Within each block were four plots that were assigned fertiliser treatment as follows: (i) control without fertiliser (FC), (ii) 4 g NPK 15:15:15 + 300 g vermicompost (197.3 kg/ha NPK 15:15:15 + 14.8 t/ha) (F1), (iii) 600 g vermicompost (29.6 t/ha) (F2), (iv) 8 g NPK (394.7 t/ha) (F3). The growth data was collected every two weeks from August 2018 to January 2019, and the biomass data was collected from February to April 2019
