Investigation was carried out during the years 2013-14 and 2014-15 at Department of Horticulture, Post Graduate Institute, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola to evaluate drying techniques and to find out suitable desiccant, for Dutch roses. Minimum dry flower weight (2.46, 2.39 and 2.42g), decrease in flower weight, diameter of dry flower, minimum reduction in diameter of flower was observed when half bloom stage flowers dried by embedding in silicagel as compared to tight bud stage for the same during both the years (2013-14 and 2014-15) and which was further confirmed in pooled result.A half bloom harvest stage flowers of Gold Strike dried by embedding in silicagel recorded maximum per cent loss of moisture (71.35,75.68 and 73.58 %), per cent reduction in diameter of flowers (13.58, 16.37 and 14.97 %), whereas it was found minimum in tight bud harvest stage flowers of a cultivar Bordo. Among two stages of harvest half bloom harvest stage flowers embedding in silicagel recorded maximum sensory scores for colour, texture and appearance of dried flowers.Keywords

The present investigation was carried out at the vineyard of Kolpa village, Tal. Latur, dist. Latur during the year 2009-2010. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with two replications. The treatments consisted of four leaf densities i.e. (12, 14, 16 and 18) leaves per shoot with four number of bunches i.e. (25, 30, 35 and 40) per vine maintained after October pruning.The observations on leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, weight of 100 berries TSS, acidity, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar and juice per cent were recorded. The maximum leaf length (6.8 cm) was observed in leaf density of 18 leaves per shoot however, minimum (6.4 cm) was recorded in leaf density of 14 leaves per shoot. The treatment combination of 18 leaves per shoot and the vines on which 35 bunches were maintained, recorded the highest leaf area index (3.00), however, minimum (1.64) was observed in treatment combination of 14 leaves per shoot and 25 bunches per vine. Significantly optimum TSS (25.00 °Brix), acidity (1.03, %), reducing sugar (18.51 %), non-reducing sugar (0.89 %), pH of juice (3.2 %) and juice per cent (77.62 %) was recorded in treatment combination of 18 leaves per shoot and 35 bunches per vines were maintained.Keywords
