Study on the effect of different planting time and various concentration of iba on the rooting of phalsa (grewia asiatica l) stem cutting under different growing condition

An investigation was conducted to find out the "Study on the Effect of Different Planting Time and Various Concentration of IBA on the Rooting of Phalsa (Grewia asiatica L) Stem Cutting Under Different Growing Conditions" at Horticultural Research Centre, Chauras Campus, HNB Garhwal University Srinagar (Garhwal), Uttarakhand, India. Cuttings were planted January, February, March, June, July and August 2013, treated with IBA concentration 1000, 1500, 2000 ppm and control under two growing condition Shade house and Mist chamber. For preparing the rooting media, sandy soil and farm yard manure (FYM) in ratio of 1:1 by v/v were mixed thoroughly, cleaned for stones and grasses, then the mixture was filled in root trainers. Thus, it can be suggested that hardwood cuttings of Phalsa planted in August after treatment with 2000 ppm concentrations of IBA under mist chamber is an effective way to improve propagation under valley conditions of Garhwal Himalaya.
