A field study was conducted at Horticulture Instructional Farm, CP College of Agriculture, SD Agricultural University, Sardarkrushi nagar, Gujarat to find out the effect of foliar application of acetyl salicylic acid and ascorbic acid on growth and yield of garden pea (Pisum sativum L.) cv. Bonneville. Plants were sprayed with treatments viz. control, NAA (25 and 50 ppm), GA3 (50 and 100 ppm), 2, 4-D (5 and 10 ppm), acetyl salicylic acid (100 ppm and 200 ppm), ascorbic acid (100 and 200 ppm) at 30 days after sowing. The results revealed that the antioxidant acetyl salicylic acid 200 ppm effective for minimum days taken for flowering whereas ascorbic acid 200 ppm has given best results for total number of pickings, minimum days taken for first picking, minimum days taken for last picking, yield per plot and yield per hectare.
