Abstract

The present experiment was conducted at R. H. R. S., Navsari (Gujarat) during 2010–11. Treatments comprised three resting periods and four pre-sowing treatments with 12 treatment combinations. Fifteen days rest after harvesting (R2) was found better with respect to earliness in germination with higher percentage of germination and growth with maximum height of seedling and number of leaves. Whereas in per-sowing treatment, seed nut soaked in water for 15 days with punching was superior in early germination and growth of seedling.
