The present investigation was carried out under insect proof net house and open field during Kharif season of 2013 and 2014for Cucumber (Pant sankar khira-1) hybrid seed production. Seed length was significantly higher under insect proof net hose (11.32) comparison to open field condition (10.36). Seed width(mm), seed coat weight(mm), cotyledon weight(g) and 100 seeds weight (g) were also significantly higher under insect proof net house (4.11, 0.13, 0.13 and 3.48 respectively) than open field condition (3.39, 0.10, 0.14 and 2.59 respectively). The germination percentage, seedling length (plate 3), vigour index I and II were significantly higher under insect proof net house (87.21, 31.43cm, 2825.54 and 11.08 respectively) but significantly lower in open field condition (82.02, 26.38cm, 2224.83 and 7.62 respectively). Electrical conductivity was lower under insect proof net house (11.22) but higher in open field condition (12.03).
