Cucumber is thought to be one of the oldest vegetable crops. A field experiment was conducted at a Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, technology and sciences, Allahabad (up) India, during the Zaid (March –June) 2019-2020, to study the “Effect of FYM doses and NPK on Growth Yield and Quality of Hybrid Cucumber under shade net (Cucumis saivus L.) experiment was laid out in Randomized block design with three replications consisted six treatments combinations T0 (Control), T1 (FYM 20% + NPK 150:120:120) T2 (FYM 40% + NPK 150:120:120), T3 (FYM 60% + NPK 150:120:120), T4 (FYM 80% + NPK 150:120:120), T5 (FYM 100% + NPK150:120:120). We are allotted randomly in each plot. The results showed that the treatment T5 (FYM 100% + NPK 150:120:120) significantly found best among all treatments at all successive growth stages in terms of growth parameters. Whereas Maximum plant height (326.79cm), Number of Leaves (122.27) and Number of Branches per plant (4.30) as growth parameters. Whereas Maximum fruit length (16.33cm) fruit diameter (15.69cm), Average fruit Weight (145.61g) fruit Yield per plot (17.69Kg), and Yield per/ha (81.90t /ha) as yield related traits also recorded Maximum with TSS (4.90 brix) and Vitamin C (8.54)/100g of fruit pulp, as quality parameters. While lowest response in terms of growth, Yield, quality of Cucumber recorded with T0 (Control) which received no treatments.
