Abstract: The work was carried out during the summer 2017 at Fruit Research Station, Madhdi Baug, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, JAU, Junagadh. The present experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications consist of twelve treatments. Among twelve treatment combinations tested, T8 (Vermicompost @ 5 t/ha + Azatobacter @ 3 liter/ha + PSB @ 3 liter/ha + KSB @ 3 liter/ha) produced best performances in growth parameters like, length of main vine (286.67 cm), length of internodes at (8.03 cm), number of branches per plant (9.72), number of nodes on main vine (67.86) at last harvest. As well as yield parameters like, fruit yield per plant (3.09 kg), fruit yield per plot (20.67 kg), fresh fruit yield (17.21 t/ha). Whatever variations were observed was due to differential nutrient supply, effect of organic sources of nutrients in the form of FYM, VC and Castor cake with the BFs (Azotobacter, Phosphorous Solubilizing Bacteria and KSB).
