Abstract
This study was conducted at Al-Kawthar Farm, Dept. of Plant Protec., Fac. of Agric., Sohag Univ., through 2022 and 2023 years. This study aimed to identify the effect of honey, royal jelly and propolis as the most important products of the honey bee colony at the growth and productivity of summer squash. The obtained results indicated that honey bee products significant increase in plant growth and number of plant branches compared to distilled water only, no additives water or organic fertilization only in both seasons. Also, using honey bee products spraying on summer squash plant increased the fruit characters. Spraying summer squash plants withe (royal jelly + bee honey) for three times gave yield (7667 and 7833 kg/fadan) during the first and second years, respectively. Adding honey on the organic fertilize as a spray for 15 days gave, 75.00, 2.33, 2.66, 17.00, 7.33, 633.3 and 3933, plant height, branches No., fruit diameter, fruit length, fruits No., fruits weight, total fruits yield respectively in the year 2022. Adding honey to the organic fertilize as a spray for 15 days gave ,75.00 ,2.66, 17.00, 8.00, 733.3 and 4033 plant height, branches No., fruit diameter, fruit length, fruits No., fruits weight, total fruits yield respectively during 2023 year.
