An investigation was conducted to study the effect of Pruning and Training systems on Cucumber cv. Malini grown under protected conditions. The whole experiment was arranged over 12 treatments consisting of 4 levels of Pruning, P1 (Removal of flower buds up to 45cm), P2 (Removal of flower buds up to 60cm), P3 (Removal of flower buds up to 75cm) and P4 (No Pruning). The characters like vine length, leaf area, days to first flowering, days to first harvest, number of fruits per vine, fruit length, fruit diameter etc. were significantly influenced by pruning systems.
