Amongst growth attributes, days to 50 per cent flowering, average diameter of the fruit, average length of fruit, average weight of fruit, length of vine were recorded and were significantly influenced by fertigation. Application of 125 per cent NPK through drip irrigation recorded maximum yield of 21.87 t ha-1 also showed maximum net income followed by application of 125 per cent N through drip irrigation and soil application P and K as basal dose of a 21.61 t ha-1.
