An experiment was conducted to study the impact of integrated nutrient management on vegetative growth and reproductive parameters of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) Cv.‟Sabrina” under polyhouse condition at College of Horticulture, UHS Campus, GKVK Post, Bengaluru during 2016-2017. The design followed was Randomized Block Design with nine treatments replicated three times. The significantly maximum plant height (24.50 cm), number of leaves/plant (23.13), leaf length (9.63 cm), leaf breadth (8.57 cm), plant spread (30.53 cm and 25.83 cm in north-south and east-west directions, respectively), number of runners/plant (5.13), leaf area (105.41 cm2), earliest in flowering (76.53 days), maximum number of flowers/plant (25.07), number of days taken for fruit maturity (30.40 days) and per cent of fruit setting (76.23%) were recorded in the plants supplied with 100% RDF + VAM @10 kg/ha + 0.4% Boron + 0.5% ZnSO4 spray. Whereas, the lowest result was recorded in the plants treated with 100% NPK through FYM only.
