Abstract

The plant and algae extracts enhancing the growth and crop yield and quality. Moreover, it is ecofriendly. So a study was carried out for the period from 2019 to 2020 on the winter Ice plant to study the effect of licorice extract and Marine algae extract. A randomized complete block design was used with three concentrations of licorice and four concentrations of Marine algae extract. The averages were tested according to LSD at a probability level of 0.5. The results showed a significant differences in the bilateral interaction between the two factors in the amount of anthocyanin, diameter, number of flowers, leaf area, amount of chlorophyll and number of roots, which amounted to 39.72 mg 100 g-1 fresh weight, 10.42 cm, 10.46 cm2, 262.18 mg.plant.root -1 sequentially.
