Effect of Substrates on the Rooting Response of Eucalyptus tereticornis Juvenile Cuttings

In an experiment with E. tereticornis (Mysore-gum) three different substrates were used to find a suitable media for developing ischolar_mained cuttings. No ischolar_main promoting hormones were applied. The three substrates were vermiculite, riverine sand and soil mixture (sand, soil and farm yard manure in a ratio of 1:2:1). It was observed that in vermiculite ischolar_mains produced are lengthy and in sand more number of ischolar_mains are produced in comparison to the other media; suggesting that, after ischolar_main initiation from cuttings in sand they may be planted in soil mixture for further development.
