Foliar spray with Ca, Mg, andvitamin B1 on growth, yield, pod quality and storability of snap bean under the conditions of sandy soil. Spraying snap bean plants with Ca, Mg and vitamin B1 significantly increased number of branches/plant, dry weight of shoots, total dry weight, N, P and K total uptake by plant, number of pods/ plant and total yield/fadden. In this respect, vitaminB, at 25 ppm .gave the highest values of the above mentioned traits followed by both Mg and Ca at 0.5 % and Mg, at 0.2%. On the other hand, dry matter (%) and appearance of green pods decreased with increasing storage period, whereas weight loss (%), decay (%) and off-odor increased with increasing storage period. In addition, spraying snap been plants with Ca at 0.5 % reduced weight loss (%) decay (%) and off-odor and gave the highest dry matter content (%) during storage in cool room.
