Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study the effect offoliar application of boron, iron and zinc on growth, yieldand economics of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) grownunder naturally ventilated polyhouse condition duringKharif season, 2018 in the polyhouse located at Collegecampus, Mata Gujri College, Fatehgarh Sahib, Punjab. Theexperiment was carried out under Randomized CompleteBlock Design (RCBD) with three replications and 15treatments. The important growth and yield parametersencompassed in the study viz., node at first flower appear(5.44), days to first flowering (27.90), days to 50 % flowering(38.75), days to first picking (44.19), number of nodes plant-1 (55.62), number of leaves plant-1 (62.83), leaf area (523.47cm2), fruit set (60.26 %), vine length (4.36 m), number offruits plant-1 (27.97), fruit length (18.67 cm), fruit diameter(4.46 cm), fruit girth (12.57 cm), average fruit weight (144.05g), fruit volume (139.93 cc), fruit yield (4.02 kg plant-1 and67.00 t ha-1), biological yield plant-1 (5.74 kg), harvest index(70.03 %) and harvest duration (58.29 days) weresignificantly superior with the combine foliar application ofZinc 30 ppm + Boron 40 ppm (T15) followed by Zinc 30 ppm+ Boron 20 ppm (T14). Net return (Rs. 628660.38) and B: Cratio (3.58) was concerned maximum with the combineapplication of Zinc 30 ppm + Boron 40 ppm (T15). On thebasis of results of present investigation, it can be concludedthat foliar application of boron, iron and zinc were foundeffective in enhancing the growth, yield and economics ofcucumber grown under naturally ventilated polyhousecondition.
