Okra is cultivated in tropical and sub-tropical areas and consists of a naturally hard seed coat So, to increase the germination percentage, an experiment was conducted in the lab of the College of Natural Resource Management, Bardibas, Mahottari. The experiment was designed in CRD block which consists of 10 treatments in which T1 is carried out with distilled water and rest (T2-T10) with different concentrations (120,150 and 180 ppm) of IBA, NAA, and GA3. Among the different PGRs, GA3 with 150 ppm performed well in overall parameters such as total germination percentage, speed of germination, mean germination time, root length, shoot length, and the ratio of root and shoot.
