The aim of this work is to study the effect of two planting dates, December and March after treated the cuttings with IBA+NAA mixture at 0+0 (control), 1000+1000 and 2000+1000 mg.l-1 in quick-dip method for 10 seconds, in addition to wounding the cuttings base or without. The results of this investigation were showed that planting date had a great effect on rooting ability, planting cuttings in March gave higher rooting percentage 58.89%, and best results of all rooting characters studied. Wounded cuttings gave higher values of rooting percentage 58.11% and all other characters. On the other hand, cuttings treated with IBA+NAA mixture at 2000+1000 mg.l-1 gave 58.33% rooting percentage, 3.91 roots per cutting, longest root length 7.98cm, 1.58 shoots number and 1.25cm shoot length. In general, wounding apical cuttings taken in March and treated with 2000+1000mg.l-1 IBA+NAA mixture proved most effective treatment in rooted Gardenia thunbergia cuttings. | ||
