Perusal of the data indicated that all the treatments significantly increased plant height of garlic. In T2 Poultry manure (54.57cm), followed by T4 Neem cake (53.87cm), T3 Goat manure (53.80), T1 Farmyard manure (51.97cm), T5 Vermi compost (51.60cm), as compared with T0 Control (43.20cm). Data revealed that at 90 days after sowing all the organic manures treatments significantly increased the plant height as comparison with control. The highest plant height was recorded in T2 Poultry manure (58.13cm), followed by T4 Neem cake (55.93cm), T3 Goat manure (55.40cm), T1 Farmyard manure (55.13cm), T5 Vermi compost (51.71cm).
