Abstract:
The present investigation entitled Studies in the size of cutting and month of planting for propagation of Indian Plumeria under Konkan agro-climatic condition (Plumeria alba Linn.) was carried out at Hi-tech unit of College of Horticulture, Dapoli during August 2022 – May 2023. The cuttings were selected with three different sizes viz. 20 cm (T1), 30 cm (T2), 40 cm (T3) and ten different months during every first fortnight. These months include August (M1), September (M2), October (M3), November (M4), December (M5), January (M6), February (M7), March (M8), April (M9) and May (M10). The experiment was carried out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. There were two factors viz. size of cutting and month of planting at every first fortnight.
The recorded parameters were significantly influenced by size of cutting and month of planting. The treatment combination, T3M7 (cutting of size 40 cm planted in the first fortnight of February) showed superior performance in terms of days required for sprouting (16.63), sprouting percentage (100%), survival percentage (87%), plant height (21.17 cm), number of leaves (14.773), leaf area (364.473 cm2) and girth at collar (6.86 mm).
