Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at Horticulture Research Farm, Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab from October 2021 to January 2022. The experiment laid out in a FRBD with 10 treatments and three replications. Highest observation in terms of growth parameters i.e., plant height (21.10cm, 27.100cm and 30.83cm), number of leaves (7.33, 11.40 and 13.20), stem diameter (2.86cm). Yield parameter i.e., diameter of curd (12.27cm), curd weight (301.33g), total yield per hectare (147.66q/ha). Quality parameters i.e., dry matter content (12.48%), ascorbic acid content (35.31mg/100g). Highest observation was recorded in T9 (spray of Borax @ 15kg/ha + Recommended dose of NPK+ 50% of FYM) in all the parameters.
