This trial aims to study the effect of growth regulators on seed yield, germination and vigour of okra. Data reveals that use of NAA @ 100 ppm is effective in enhancing germination (94.67%) and also results in increasing seed yield (29.78 q/ha) as compared to control which recorded only 79.50% germination and 23.15 q/ha seed yield. But as the concentration of NAA was increased beyond 100 ppm it had negative effect reducing both germination and seed yield. Similar trend was also observed for other quality traits.
