A field experiment was conducted during rabi 2017-18 at PG block, College of Horticulture, Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University, Hyderabad, Telangana, India, to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth parameters of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) cultivars. The experiment was evaluated in randomized block design with factorial concept consists two factors like Cultivars and Inorganic, Organic and Bio fertilizers. The first factor comprised of two cultivars i.e. AD-1 and Suguna besides the second factor consists fertilizer levels of F1 - 100% RDF (15-40-20 NPK Kg ha-1), F2 - 75% RDF + Farmyard Manure (FYM @10 t ha-1) + Azospirillum and PSB (5g Kg-1 of seed as seed inoculation + 5 Kg ha-1 as soil application). F3 - 75% RDF + Vermicompost (VC @ 5t ha-1) + Azospirillum and PSB (5g Kg-1 of seed as seed inoculation + 5 Kg ha-1 as soil application), F4 - 50% RDF + Farmyard Manure (FYM @10 t ha-1) + Azospirillum and PSB (5g Kg-1 of seed as seed inoculation + 5 Kg ha-1 as soil application), F5 - 50% RDF + Vermicompost (VC @ 5t ha-1) + Azospirillum and PSB (5g Kg-1 of seed as seed inoculation + 5 Kg ha-1 as soil application). Ten treatment combinations were replicated thrice. Among the treatments, F3-75% RDF + Vermicompost @ 5t ha-1 + Azospirillum and PSB (5g Kg-1 of seed as seed inoculation + 5 Kg ha-1 as soil application) with the variety V2-Suguna recorded least number of days taken to 50 per cent and 100 per cent seed germination and maximum plant height, number of secondary branches per plant, leaf area, minimum number of days taken to first and 50 per cent flowering, number of umbels per plant and umbellate per umbel.
