Treatments consisted of 2-fertilizer levels, viz. 100 and 50% recom- mended fertilizer in main plot, 2 sap source, viz. Kappaphycus alvarezii and Gracilaria edulis in subplot and 6 sap concentration spray, viz. 0 (water), 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 and 15% in sub-subplot, laid out in a split-split-plot design and replicated thrice.
