The goal of this study was to observe the impact of different nutrients and their combinations on growth and yield of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cultivar named Nagina was used at Horticultural Research Area, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Parameters like plant height, number of leaves per plant, number of flowers per plant, number of clusters per plant, number of flowers per cluster, number of fruits per plant, average fruit weight (g), yield per plant (kg), number of infected fruits per plant, total soluble solids%, Vitamin C at Fruit Ripening, fruit color were studied. Different combinations and concentrations of boron, calcium and nitrogen were used as treatments in earlier experiments to study their performance and the best one selected for tomato crop. The combinations used were T0 (Control), T1 (Boron=0.1% solution), T2 (Boron=0.2% solution), T3 (Calcium=0.2% solution), T4 (Calcium=0.3% solution), T5 (Nitrogen=2% solution), T6 (Nitrogen=2% solution), T7 (Boron=0.1%+Calcium=0.2% solution), T8 (Boron=0.1%+Calcium=0.3% solution), T9 (Boron=0.2%+Calcium=0.2% solution), T10 (Boron=0.2%+Calcium=0.3% solution), T11 (Boron=0.1%+Calcium=0.2%+nitrogen=2% solution) and T12 (Boron=0.2%+Calcium=0.3% +nitrogen=3% solution).
