A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Farm, Baba Raghav Das Post Graduate College, Deoria affiliated to Deen Dayal Upadhayay Gorakhpur University, Gorakhpur (U.P.) during kharif season 2017-2018 to study the response of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on soil characteristics and growth attributes and yield of bottle gourd on sandy loam soil. City solid waste (7.5 t ha-1), Poultry Manures (7.5 t ha-1), Farm Yard Manures (7.5 t ha-1) and vermicompost (7.5 tha-1) were applied during preparation of field. The maximum growth attributes and yield of bottle gourd observed in vermicompost treated plots followed by poultry manures, farm yard manures and city solid waste as well as higher growth attributes and bottle gourd were recorded in 100 Kg N ha-1 followed by 75, 50 and 25 Kg ha-1, respectively. The soil pH slightly decrease while Bulk Density, Electrical Conductivity and Organic Carbon is increased due to organic manures added. The mineralization of organic matter to build up available inorganic N, P, K nutrients to available NPK in soil.
