Germination growth and yields of Aster (Asteraceae) and Daisies (Asteraceae)flowering plants were made by irrigated with distillery spentwash of different concentrations.Diluted spentwash (1:1, 1:2, and 1:3) were analyzed for plant nutrients such as nitrogen,phosphorous, potassium and other physical and chemical characteristics. Experimental soil wastested for its chemical and physical parameters. Aster and Daisies seeds were sowed indifferent pots and irrigated with raw water (RW), 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 spentwash. The nature ofgermination growth and yields of seeds was studied. It was found that, the germination growthand yields was very good (100%) in 1:3 SW irrigation, while very poor (25%) in 1:1 SW,moderate (80%) in 1:2 SW and 95% in RW irrigation.
