For morphometric analysis, fresh samples of leaves and buds were harvested and brought to the Laboratory of Horticulture. Length and width per 10 buds and 10 leaves were determined by measuring tape. Leaf area (cm2) was recorded using portable leaf area meter (LI-COR Inc., Lincoln, NE, USA), while the weight of buds and leaves was determined with Ohaus digital balance (Ohaus Scale Corp. Florham Park, NJ, USA). For the determination of dry matter and water content, we placed leaves and buds in oven for 24 h at 60 °C. Fresh weight and dry weight were recorded to calculate the dry matter and water contents of leaves and buds.

The experiment was conducted at College of Horticulture, Dapoli under Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkon Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri 415 712 (MS.) during the year 2018. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with four replications and six treatment namely T 1 : Soil + FYM + Sand (2:1:1) (Control), T 2 : Soil + FYM + Sand (2:1:1) with 1" cocopeat at top, T 3 : Soil + Vermicompost + Sand (2:1:1) with 1" Cocopeat at top, T 4 : Soil + FYM + Vermicompost + Sand (1:1:1:1) with 1" Cocopeat at top, T 5 : Soil + FYM + Vermicompost + Rice husk (1:1:1:1) with 1" Cocopeat at top, T 6 : Soil + FYM+ Vermicompost + Cocopeat (1:1:1:1). Three months old soft wood grafts of nutmeg grown in 6"×8" size polybags were used for the experimental purpose. Such grafts were transferred in 9"x11" size polythene bags having different media combination of soil, FYM, vermicompost, sand, coco-peat and rice husk as per the treatment. A unit of 50 grafts was used per replication.
Average leaf length (cm), average leaf width (cm) and leaf area (cm 2 ) were measured with the help of a portable leaf area meter (Licor, company. USA.). Growth rate and per cent increment in height were measured as per the following methods.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
