- Intervention effect Raising N increased shoot and root dry weights, leaf number and shoot:root ratio.
- Intervention effect Growth variables increased as P rose from 5 to 25 mg per liter.
- Intervention effect Growth variables decreased as P rose from 25 to 125 mg per liter.
- Intervention effect Increasing K from 10 to 250 mg per liter increased seedling height, stem diameter and leaf area.
