Abstract: The present investigation has been carried out to find out the effect of different types of organic sources on vegetative growth in Tulsi (Ocimum sanctum L.). In present study, there were four different organic manures FYM, Vermicompost, Pressmud and a Bio-fertilizer PSB (Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria) were used in this experiment. The vegetative growth related character like number of branch, plant height, number of leaves per plant, fresh leaf weight, dry leaf weight and diameter of stem were observed. These characters were significantly affected by the application of different organic manures. The remarkable variations were noted in such vegetative growth characters due to application of various manures and bio- fertilizer application. The number of branchs, plant height, number of leaves per plant, fresh leaf weight, dry leaf weight and diameter of stem were recorded maximum with application of pressmud (7.5 ton/ha).
