Effect of Ta41 on Growth, Yield and Quality of Cucumber (Cucumis Sativus L.) Laxmi F1 Hybrid

Abstract

The present experiment was carried out during 2021-22 in Central Horticulture Research Farm of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with 10 treatments replicated thrice. The treatments were T0 (Without TA41),T1 (soil drenching of TA41 @10ml/L),T2 (soil drenching of TA41 @ 10ml/L+ Foliar spray 20ml/spray tank),T3 (Soil drenching of TA41 @ 15ml/L),T4 (Soil drenching of TA41@ 15ml/+Foliar spray 30ml/Spray tank),T5 (Soil drenching of TA41@ 20ml/L),T6 (Soil drenching of TA41 @ 20ml /L + foliar spray 40ml / spray tank),T7 (Soil drenching of TA41 @ 25ml /L),T8 (Soil drenching of TA41 @ 25ml/l + foliar spray 50ml/spray tank) and T9 (Foliar spray of TA41 @ 30 ml/spray tank). On the basis of our findings it was concluded that the treatment T4 (Soil drenching of TA41@ 15ml/+Foliar spray 30ml/Spray tank) was found to be best in the terms of vegetative growth, yield and yield parameters, quality parameters, shelf life and benefit cost ratio.
