The study indicated that growth characters were significantly influenced by different dose and time of application of potassium. Among the growth parameters the highest pseudostem girth (67.50 cm) and the highest leaf area index (LAI) of 4.71 was recorded under T4 [200g K2O + 100g K2O/plant (2+2 splits: 75th, 165th, 255th and 300th day after planting)]. The highest number of hands per bunch (7.67), bunch weight (17.63 kg) and yield (53.73t/ha) was also obtained under T4 indicating the contribution of the pseudostem girth and LAI towards the yield of banana.
