Abstract
Guava is a tropical and subtropical fruit (20) plant which can be propagated vegetatively through various methods like cutting, grafting, inarching but layering is the most common and widely used method. In layering also, air layering is considered best for guava propagation. Air layering on guava is performed with different IBA concentrations which is used as a rooting hormone. Effect of environment on time and technique used is being noticed at various intervals of time during different months. Alongwith IBA and NAA, various organic and inorganic rooting medias are used individually or in combination to perform layering. Comparisons are being made that which media cause faster rooting in guava plants and at which concentrations. Various parameters like survival rate, maximum rooting length, maximum root diameter and maximum numbers of primary and secondary roots are considered by using different rooting medias.
