The present experiment was conducted at Department of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture, College of Horticulture, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli Dist. Ratnagiri, (Maharashtra State) during Rabi season of the year 2019-20. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications comprising nine treatments viz., GA3 (100 ppm and 200 ppm), TRIA (20 ppm and 30 ppm), CCC (4000 ppm and 5000 ppm) and NAA (10 ppm and 20 ppm) along with control on marigold cv. Calcutta Marigold. The results of the present experiment are statistically significant difference was recorded on growth and yield of marigold plants as a result of various plant growth regulator treatments applied. Among all the treatments, maximum plant height (82.26 cm), plant spread (92.52 cm), a greater number of branches (56.02), a greater number of leaves (420.60) and maximum fresh and dry weight (190.37 g/plant) and (22.84 g/plant) were recorded in GA3 @ 100 ppm. Next to this it was followed by the GA3 @ 200 ppm treatment with height of (78.68 cm), plant spread (91.00 cm), number of branches (55.98), number of leaves (419.20) and fresh and dry weight (189.17 g/plant) and (22.70 g/plant) respectively, as compare to other treatments and control. Both the treatments of GA3@100 and 200 ppm were found statistically significant at all levels over all other treatments and were on same par with each other for vegetative plant characters under study.
