In in the present research paper effect on the growth and phosphorus absorption in different part of the vegetable crops viz., seedling, flowering and harvesting (fruit/vegetable) stages was studied in water culture, pot culture experiment was carried out in august 2023- december 2023 with four levels of phosphorus using P³² tagged super phosphate viz., 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.50, gm P₂O₅/35 cm (Pot), respectively. A uniform doses of recommended N & K were applied along with uptake of utilization of applied fertilizer as Phosphorus treatment in dark clay of Moradabad Distt. U.P. in India. An increase in the phosphorus of the absorbed phosphorus trans-located to the short and the reduction of root weight were the most consistent symptoms. Dry matter yield, total uptake of phosphorus and percentage of P³² derived from fertilizer increased significantly with increasing level of phosphorus. But percentage utilization of added phosphorus showed a reverse trend at all the stages of vegetable crops growth. Harvesting (fruit/vegetable) yield increased significantly with increasing phosphorus levels in all three vegetable crops with their respective controls.
