Abstract

The field experiment entitled “Influence of 3G cutting in Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) for growth, yield and fruit quality” was conducted during kharif 2022 at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj, (U.P). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments including control which were replicated thrice. The experiment results revealed that the treatment T1 (Primary branch cutting 25% of the length + secondary branch cutting 25% of the length) gave better results than other treatments viz, maximum number of female flowers (27.65), vine length (6.91m), number of fruits per plant (6.66), yield per plot (5.95 kg), yield per hectare (29.74 t/ha), TSS (3.60oBrix) and B:C ratio (3.6) were recorded significantly higher compared to other treatments.
