Abstract

The effect of node position (node 1-5th, 6-10th and 11-15th above the ground ), age of culm ( 1 and 2 years culms ) and time of cutting (monthly from February – May ) of Bambusa oldhamii on their rooting abilities were studied during 21st February -17th July 1996 at Department of Horticulture, Kamphaengsaen Campus. Single node cutting technique was used in 3x2x4 factorial in CRD and rooting abilities were observed after 2 months. The results showed that the node at the base (node 1-5th ) of one year old culm were the good materials for propagation when cutting in March.
