A microbial consortium consisting of Azospirillum, phosphate solubilizing bacterium (Pseudomonas striata), potassium solubilizing bacterium, PGPR (plant growth promoting rhizobacterium) strain (Pseudomonas sp. B15) and lactic acid bacterium (Leuconostoc mesenteroides) with antifungal activities was prepared. It effect on the growth and biomass of different vegetable seedlings raised in nursery protrays was evaluated in a commercial farmer’s nursery. The microbial inoculation resulted in improved plant height and biomass. The per cent increase in plant height and girth of tomato was 57.

An experiment was conducted to study the “Effect of growing media and fertigation schedules on growth and yield of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) under polyhouse condition” during kharif season of 2016 at Department of Horticulture, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner. The growing media: garden soil 18 kg/bag + vermicompost 2 kg/bag + cocopeat 2 cm layer at top shows the increase in all growth characters (chlorophyll and number of days taken to first flower appearance), yield attributes [number of fruits per vine, average fruit weight and fruit yield per 1000 m2 (11.

An experiment was conducted during 2015 and 2016 to study the effect of growing media and plant spacing on growth and yield of capsicum cv. Orobelle in the mid hills of Himalayas. The media consisting of Soil + Cocopeat + Vermicompost + FYM (2:1:0.5:0.5) proved to be statistically superior over rest of the growing media for almost all the aspects under investigation. All the attributes were better or at par when the plants were spaced at the wider plant spacing (45 x 60 cm).

The experiment was conducted to study the efficacy of different rooting media and IBA concentrations on yield of carnation cuttings cv. Gaudina during 2017-2018 and the experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (RBD). Different rooting media and IBA concentrations studied recorded superior rooting parameters over control. Among the different rooting media studied, cocopeat + river sand (1:1) and among the IBA concentration, 200 ppm IBA was found the best.

Phalaenopsis orchids occupy a top position in the international market as pot plant. Commonly used media for growing Phalaenopsis orchid are coconut husk chips, tree bark, fir bark, cocopeat and sphagnum moss. Growing medium is important as it provides anchorage, retains moisture, nutrients and aerates the roots. In addition to these functions, a study was carried out to assess the possible growth promoting effects of sphagnum moss on orchids when used as growing medium. Eight month old hardened plants of Phalaenopsis ‘Magic Kiss’ were used for the trial.

Tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.) was grown on eight different substrate combinations in 6” plastic pots for two consecutive years at ICAR-IIHR, Bengaluru. The influence of the substrate on vegetative growth, spike production and quality were evaluated. Arka Fermented Cocopeat was used as the main component of all the substrates with different amendments. These were compared with the conventional soil based media. The substrate combination of Arka fermented cocopeat (AFC) + soil + sand + FYM (1:1:1:1 v/v) was found to be most suitable media for pot plant production of tuberose var.
