Evaluation of growth performance of Terminalia tomentosa under different potting media

The present investigations on evaluation of the growth performance of Terminalia tomentosa under different potting media were conducted at the College of Forestry, Dapoli, Ratnagiri, Maharashtra during 2020-21 in completely randomised block design with seven treatment combinations comprising control (soil), control (cocopeat), control (vermicompost) and soil, vermicompost and cocopeat in the ratios of 2:1:1, 1:1:1, 1:2:2 and 1:2:2. The findings indicated that among the different growing media having soil, vermicompost and cocopeat (1:1:1) increased the overall plant growth of T tomentosa with higher germination, shoot length, root length, collar diameter and fresh shoot and root weight.
