Abstract :This research was carried out in Ordu University Faculty of Agriculture Laboratory in 2020. Planting of rice by seedling method is a widely used method. In this method where stronger seedlings are generally preferred, it is desired that the seeds should be of good quality, healthy and have strong germination ability. In this context, it was aimed to determine the effects of five different vermicompost applications on some germination characteristics of three different paddy varieties. In this study, five different doses of soil-applied vermicompost insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0-2-4-6-8 ml liquid manure/100 ml water); and three different paddy varieties insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Aslı, Osmancık 97 and Baldo); were used. The study was conducted in glass petri dishes under laboratory conditions. The experiment was established according to the factorial experimental design in randomized plots with 3 replications. In the study, germination rate insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(strength); was 88-100%, average germination time was 3.15-3.96 days, germination index was 4.00%-4.55%, shoot length was 43.24-62.42 mm, root length was 64.62-85.03 mm, shoot wet weight was 4.16-5.27 mg, shoot dry weight was 0.03-0.04 mg, root wet weight was 4.00-5.79 mg and root dry weight was 0.03-0.04 mg. The effects of cultivars on germination rate, germination time and germination index were statistically significant. On the other hand, the effect of vermicompost doses on average germination time and shoot length was statistically significant.
