Minimum germination percent was founded in treatments T₁ at 15 DAS and at 20 DAS in treatment T₅, while lowest seedling height, no. of leaves plant^-1, stem girth, shoot length & root length was recorded in treatment T₁. Minimum survival percent & maximum mortality percent was observed in treatment T₇ during the experiment.
