Abstract: In order to support good growth for airplant, two distinct forms special fertilizer(15:5:30, 17:8:22)were used in different concentrations such as 500 times/dilute, 1000 times/dilute, 2000 times/dilute, 3000 times/dilute, 4000 times/dilute and control group. Percentage of individual plant liveweight growth and chlorophyll content of leaves were contrasted, the results showed fertilizer(17:8:22)were better than fertilizer(15:5:30), moreover concentrations from 500 times/dilute to 1000 times/dilute of fertilizer(15:5:30)and from 1000 times/dilute to 2000 times/dilute of fertilizer(17:8:22)were good for testing varieties of airplant.
