The present experiment was conducted during winter (Rabi) season of 2018-19 at the research farm and the laboratory at Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, Bhagalpur, and Bihar. The experiment comprised of five genotypes of garlic namely, BRG-13, BRG-14, BRG-1, G-1 and G-323 sown on three different dates of sowing10-10-2019, 25-10-2019 and 10-11-2011. Thus total numbers of treatment combinations were 15. The design of experiment was Split Plot Design and there were three replications. Observations were recorded treatment wise on growth and yield parameters like plant height, length of leaves, number of leaves per plant, width of leaf, shaft length, yield of bulb per plant, neck thickness, diameter of bulb, length of bulb, length of clove, weight of clove, width of clove and number of cloves and quality parameters like TSS and total phenol content. The data were analyzed statistically according to the method outlined by (Gomez and Gomez, 1984). Results showed that most of the treatments varied significantly with respect to different dates of planting and genotypes and also due to their interaction effect for growth, yield and quality parameters and that the genotype, BRG-13 was the best performer with respect to growth yield and quality when sown on first date of sowing.
