Vegetative propagation of White Kwao Kreur (Pueraria candollei var. mirifica) was carried out to investigate the most efficient vegetative propagation method at Kanchanaburi Horticultural Research Centre during 2006 to 2009. The experiment was designed as RCB with 10 replications and 4 treatments namely wrapping with wet coconut husk only. IBA + wrapping with wet coconut husk, ripping + IBA + wrapping with wet coconut husk and IBA + wrapping with wet coconut husk (air layering style). The result showed that spreading on branch node surface with 2,000 ppm of 4-indol-3- ylbutyric acid (IBA) 0.3% and then wrapped with wet coconut husk, was the best method Fiffy to sixty percent of root formation rate was obtained within 16- 19 days. The optimum time for this method should be done in either May or July. The suitable growing media should be loamy soil mixed with cow manure and rice husk at the ratio of 1:1:2 by volume. Spreading every scars on the branch cuttings with carbendazim as fungicide and keeping in transparent plastic bags for one month prior to planting, was necessary to protect water loss and increase survival.
