Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during 2017 at Horticulture Research Farm-1, BBAU, Lucknow on 11- year- old guava plants, Studies on the Effect of foliar application of nutrients and plant growth regulators on quality parameters of guava (Psidium guajava L.) fruit cv. Lalit”, revealed that T.S.S (0B), reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, total sugars, ascorbic acid and acidity were maximized when foliar spray was done with Urea (1%), Potassium sulphate (1%), Zinc sulphate (1%) GA3 50 ppm, and NAA 50 ppm.
