Abstract: AMARGO, KRISTIA SOLEIL S., BAYAS, QUINN ERICKA B. and CABOLES, ELLAIZA MARIE G. Propagability of Sweet Leaf (Stevia rebaudiana) Cuttings in Different Rooting Media. A Research Study ( General Science Curriculum ). Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2011. Adviser: Dr. Analita dM. Magsino The study entitled "Propagability of Sweet Leaf (Stevia rebaudiana) Cuttings in Different Rooting Media" was conducted at the Culinary, Herbs, Aromatics, and Medicinals Project of College of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Natural Resources, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite from October 2010 to January 2011. Specifically, the study aimed to : 1) determine the effects of the types of cuttings on the propagation success of sweet leaf; 2) determine the effects of different rooting media on the propagation success of sweet leaf; and 3) determine the interaction effects between types of cuttings and rooting medium on the propagation success of sweet leaf. The study was laid-out as a two-factor experiment in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with types of stem cutting as Factor A namely, Ti — top cutting, T2 — middle cutting and T3 — base cutting, and the rooting medium as Factor B namely, M1 — 50% river sand + 50% garden soil, M2 — 50% river sand + 50 % vermicompost and M3 — 50% river sand + 25% garden soil + 25% vermicompost. Each replication contained 8 plants. All quantitative data were statistically analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and significant differences among treatments were assessed using Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The plant height and number of shoots of sweet leaf cuttings were measured 30 to 90 days after planting (DAP). The number of leaves of sweet leaf cuttings was counted at 90 DAP. Likewise, percentage survival of sweet leaf cuttings was taken at 90 DAP. Nonsignificant differences were obtained in all factors during the entire conduct of the study. The type of cuttings and rooting media do not affect the propagation success of sweet leaf. The three types of cuttings, such as tip, middle, and base may be used as planting materials while combinations of river sand, vermicompost, and garden soil may be utilized as rooting media.
