The cultivation of acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia Swingle), commonly known as Kagzi lime, is of significant economic importance in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. This citrus fruit is esteemed for its tart flavor, aromatic qualities, and versatility in culinary and medicinal applications. Maximizing the yield and quality of acid lime crops is a primary concern for growers, necessitating research into various factors influencing seed germination and plant vigor. Citrus aurantiifolia, commonly known as acid lime, is a small evergreen tree belonging to the Rutaceae family. An experiment was conducted in the department of horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj during winter (2023-24). The experiment was arranged based on RBD having 7 treatment and 3 replications. The treatment T6 Soil + FYM + Vermicompost + vermiculite (1:2:2:1) was found significant compared to other treatment combinations, which recorded highest mean value of plant height (27.72 cm), number of leaves per plant (19.60), stem girth (7.25 cm), leaf area (4.95 cm2), chlorophyll content SPAD (51.03) were also obtained from treatment T6 Soil + FYM + Vermicompost + vermiculite (1:2:2:1) followed by T4 Soil + FYM + Vermicompost + vermiculite (1:1:2:1) and lowest was obtained from T0 (control).
