Sažetak
The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility and feasibility of using spent mushroom compost from Agaricus bisporus as an alternative growing media for greenhouse production of Pimpinella anisum L. seedlings. The experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions at Faculty of Agriculture, University of Banja Luka in 2013. It was arranged in a split-plot design with four repetitions and two treatments (conventional substrate and spent mushroom compost). Morphological parameters, plant height and leaf number, were recorded regularly during growth and development of Anis seedlings. At the end of experiment, seedlings were sampled and root and above-ground fresh and dry weight and root lenght were recorded. Obtained results showed significantly higher values of all investigated parameters of seedlings grown on spent mushroom compost. Thus it can be concluded that use of spent mushroom compost in the production of anise seedlings is possible and economically justified as well as environmental friendly.
