A field experiment was conducted using five treatments, viz., T1= 30 cm × 30 cm, T2= 40 cm × 30 cm, T3 = 45 cm × 30 cm, T4 = 40 cm × 40 cm and T5 = 45 cm × 45 cm in randomized block design with four replications under polyhouse and open conditions. One-month-old seedlings of California Wonder were transplanted at the above spacings. Treatment comprising spacing of 45 cm × 30 cm was significantly superior than other treatments with regard to plant height, number of branches, plant spread and leaf area under polyhouse and open conditions respectively. There was significantly higher yield gain under low cost naturally ventilated polyhouse as compared to open conditions
