The field experiment was laid out at Horticulture Research Farm of Gochar Mahavidhalaya, Rampur Maniharan, Saharanpur (Uttar Pradesh) during 2011-2012. The eleven treatments,T1 - Recommended dose of NPK/ha (120 kg:80 kg:60 kg), T2 - Half dose of NPK/ha + FYM @ 15 tonnes/ha, T3 - Half dose of NPK/ha + Azospirillum @ 5 kg/ha, T4 - Half dose of NPK/ha + FYM @ 15 tonnes/ha + Azospirillum @ 5 kg/ ha, T5 - Half dose of NPK/ha + VAM @ 5 kg/ha, T6 - Half dose of NPK/ha + FYM @ 15 tonnes/ha + VAM@ 5 kg/ha, T7 - Half dose of NPK/ ha + FYM @ 15 tonnes/ha + Azospirillum @ 5 kg/ha + VAM @ 5 kg/ha, T8 - Half dose of NPK/ha + Vermicompost @ 2.5 tonnes/ha, T9 - Half dose of NPK/ha + vermicompost @ 2.5 tonnes/ha + Azospirillum @ 5 kg/ha, T10 - Half dose of NPK/ha + vermicompost @ 2.5 tonnes/ha + VAM @ 5 kg/ha, T11 - Half dose of NPK/ha + vermicompost @ 2.5 tonnes/ha + Azospirillum @ 5 kg/ha + VAM @ 5 kg/ha were evaluated in Randomized Block Design with the three replication. The treatment T11 registered significantly higher value plant height (62.02cm), number of leaves/plant (25.67), width of leaf (25.53cm), length of stalk (12.08cm), spread of the plant (64.38cm), diameter of curd (19.20cm), weight of curd (953.31g), yield of curd (267.30q/ha) as compared to rest of the treatments.
