Par a CU a a Batu Ma eC a ol) weeds on the Growth Performance of Pechay (Brassica rapa Linn.) The study was conducted to: (1) compare the different weed plants process as fermented plant juice and fermented fruit juice of pechay plant’ and (2) to assess the pesticides potential of the different weed plant. Succulent, broadleaf plant materialweeds. trom Sinaw-sinaw (Peperoia pellucida), Kangkong (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk), kullis (Amaranthus spinesos L.), Talobteb (Physalis angulata L.) ‘ondi-kendi (Pageiora Fostida) and saging (Musa ep.) were prepared ae organic ferilzer for pechay plants. Commercial fertiizer (urea) ‘and water were also used for comparison. For more than a month, pechay plants were maintained of five FPJ treatments: Ty- control Ty ~ Taquatiea: Te: P pellucida, A spinosus: and Ts - urea and five FF treatments: Ty water: Ty -P. angulata: Tz fostide: Te-Musa ‘5p. and_Tz- urea. In treatment application, drenching and aerial spraying methods were employed. Results revealed that fermented plant juice from FPJ aquatica and FF Musa sp. showed greatest patential in improving the growth of pechay based on plant height umber of leaves, leaf length and width. Except for weight after harvest, P pellucida revealed to be ofe comparably better than the Facommended |. aquatica as component in fermented plant juice preparation. Nevertheless, urea (46-0-0) obtained the best growth for pechay based from the observed parameters Pechay (Brassica rapa L.) is one of the common leafy vegetable crops grown in the Philippines belonging to family Cruciferae (Philip's Nature Encyclopedia, 2003, p. 74). Vegetables are important and substantial source of food that significantly contributes to the quality Of diet. itis consumed both as raw and cooked. Ideally, itis eaten as raw to prevent possible oss of its nutritional value when heated. It Is an excellent source of income and hobby even for limited space adopting the very popular vertical garde-ning with the use of recycled containers as potting media. i is a good source of calcium, phusphorus, Iron and vitamin B. Decoction of the rhizomes and young leaves can be used for hemoptysis and coughs. Pechay has also name variations as "Bok ChoyiCho'’, Pak ChoyiChol" and Weng Bok™ inother countries (Prado and Sampanga, 2013) Organic farming produces nutrient rich, fertile soll which nourishes the plants, Keeping chemicals off the land, protect water supply and wid life and implementing a free range Mestyie. The Philppines through RA 10088 aime to strengthen the states policy to promote, propagate, develop further and implement the practice of organic agriculture.
