The influence of mineral fertilizers on morphometric parameters of Melissa officinalis (Melissa officinalis L.) was studied. It is shown that the morphometric indicators changed depending on the meteorological conditions and the types of mineral fertilizers. The most active shoot formation was observed on the variant with the use of phosphorus-potassium fertilizers. The maximum value of the leaf surface index (leaf area index – LAI) of Melissa officinalis plants was recorded in 2017 on the variant with the use of nitrogen-potassium mineral fertilizers.
