The agronomic performance of and the mineral composition and trace element content in Callistephus, Impatiens, Lobelia and Petunia were tested by growing the plants on substrates of white peat and 50 or 100% green waste and sewage sludge (80% + 20% v/v) compost (CP); a commercial peat medium (CM) of black and white peat (2:1 by vol.) was used as control. At flowering, the agronomic parameters were compared by ANOVA and plant nutritional status was checked by vector analysis. Substrate-species interactions (P<0.001) were evident for all measured parameters. Callistephus and Petunia were the most adaptable, increasing growth and flower production even at 50% CP. While Impatiens reacted negatively only to unblended CP, Lobelia showed a negativ...
