ABSTRACT
To access the vegetative and reproductive growth of strawberry plants a study was conducted in the nursery of Department of Horticulture, Khalsa College Amritsar during 2018-2019. The study was carried out with planting of the runners of strawberry cv. Chandler in middle of October. The foliar spray of salicylic acid (2 mM, 4 mM and 6 mM) was done on the plants at flowering, fruit setting stage and at 30, 20 and 10 days before harvesting. The treatments were replicated thrice following Randomised Block design replicated thrice. The results of the study revealed that the application of salicylic acid at the 4 mM level significantly increased vegetative growth, number of flower clusters, and earliness in the treated strawberry cultivars while salicylic acid 2mM improved the fruit quality.
