The experiment was conducted during September 2011 to March 2012 to study the effect of different media on rooting of cuttings of different cultivars of carnation under poly house conditions. All the media treatments recorded superior rooting parameters over control. Among the media treatments studied combination media treatments recorded superior percentage of rooting, maximum number of roots per cutting and length of longest root over individual media treatments. All the three cultivars planted in red earth+ coco peat media recorded early root initiation, highest percentage of rooting and maximum number of roots per cutting followed by coco peat+ vermicompost. Among the individual media treatments studied vermicompost alone recorded maximum cumulative length of roots, fresh weight of roots and maximum percentage of establishment of rooted cuttings. Among the cultivars studied cv. Baltico recorded maximum cumulative length of roots and maximum percentage of establishment of rooted cuttings followed by cv. Dona and cv. Keiro. cv. Baltico treated with red earth+ cocopeat media recorded maximum number of roots and fresh weight of roots per cutting and dry weight of roots.
