Abstract
Vegetative production techniques, of which cutting method widely used in propagation of ornamental as well as fruit plants, have a crucial role in multiplication.On rooting development of stem cuttings and growing media are some of the critical factors that affect the success.The primary objective of this study is to determine the best stem cutting type and ideal growing media for fig (Ficus carica) cv.Black Ischia.The research was conducted at the model nursery of ICAR-Central Arid Zone Research Institute, K.V.K., Pali-Marwar (Rajasthan), India during two successive seasons from July-September, 2022 and 2023.This research was arranged in a complete randomized design with two types of cutting and nine treatment combinations of growing media with three replications.The results showed that the minimum days taken for first sprouting, highest number of sprouting, roots per cutting, percentage of rooted cutting, root length, number of leaves, plant height and survival percentage of cuttings was recorded significantly highest in hardwood cutting saplings and treatment T 7 (50% Pond soil + 25% River sand + 25% Vermicompost) was significantly best growing media in respectively both years of experimentation.As fig culture in India is at very nascent stage, this cutting technique and suitable composition of growing media will help in the quick spread of sapling.
