Abstract:

The present experiment was carried out during June-August in 2019-2020 in Central horticulture research farm of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with 10 treatment replicated thrice. The treatments were T0(control), T1(Soil + Vermicompost (1:2)), T2(Soil + Perlite (1:2)), T3 (Soil + Cocopeat (1:2)), T4 (Soil + Sand (1:2)), T5 (Soil + Vermicompost + Perlite (1:2:1)), T6 (Soil + Perlite + cocopeat (1:2:1)), T7 (Soil + Pond soil + vermicompost (1:2:1)), T8 (Soil + Pond Soil + Perlite (1:2:1)), T9 (Soil + Pond Soil + Cocopeat (1:2:1)), T10 (Soil + Perlite + cocopeat + Vermicompost +Pond Soil (1:1:2:2:1)). From the present investigation it is found that treatment T9 (Soil + Pond Soil + Cocopeat (1:2:1)) was found superior in terms Day of Germination (9.00), Germination percentage(95.00), No. of leaves per seedling(16.00), Length of seedling (17.10), Girth of seedling (7.53), Seedling vigor index(1989.00), Fresh weight of seedling(27.00), Dry weight of seedling(8.66), Dry weight of root(0.94).


Keywords: Vermicompost, Perlite, Cocopeat, Pond soil
