EFFECT OF GROWTH REGULATORY DRUGS ON CUCUMBER PRODUCTIVITY AND QUALITY

The article presents the results of the effectiveness of growth-controlling drugs on cucumber crops in field and laboratory conditions. Cucumber has a special place in human life among the plants belonging to the family of gourds. Cucumis Sativus Z is the most widespread vegetable in Uzbekistan, therefore, the area of open fields and greenhouses for their cultivation is increasing every year.

The agrotechnics and system of cucumber cultivation have been improved, soil fertility has been improved and new high-yielding hybrids and varieties are recommended in order to increase productivity. Cucumber is a heat-loving plant, requires high air humidity and grows rapidly in conditions with high soil fertility. The effectiveness of the tested drugs "Biosil" and "Buton" is 71.9%, which is 43.5% higher than the control. It was observed that the yield of Buton drug was 65.9%, which is 6% less than that of "Biosil".

The results showed that high economic efficiency was achieved by using natural and artificial growth regulators. Preparations have been proven to accelerate the growth and development of crops, with the possibility of quick ripening and long-term yield, as well as economic efficiency.
