The purpose of this study was to determine the dose of fine compost and husk charcoal, as a source of silica and its interactions in the cultivation of chrysanthemum. The research method used was the factorial randomized block design carried out in the field of a green house. Two factors were used in this study which are made up of fine compost consisting in 3 levels 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 tons ha, and husk charcoal, also in 3 levels 100, 200 and 300 kg ha. The results showed that the fine compost treatment had a very significant effect, at P <0.01, on all the observed variables. In addition, the highest fresh weight of this economical flowers was 88.83g, produced by the treatment with 1.5 tons ha dose of fine compost. Also, this resulted to an increase in yield by 23.04% compared to the fine compost with the lowest treatment dosage. Similarly, the treatment with husk charcoal had a significant effect, at P <0.05, on the maximum plant height, flower stem length, and flower diameter. It also had a very significant effect, at P <0.01, on the stem diameter, flower stem weight, and fresh weight of the economical flowers. The treatment of husk charcoal with a dose of 300 kg ha produced the highest fresh weight of 80.78 g. This resulted in an increase in yield by 53.73% compared to the treatment with the lowest dosage. However, the interaction between the two treatments had no significant effect on all observed variables.
