<br/><br/> PALIJON, ARMANDO MANITO, University of the Philippines at Los Banos, March, 1983. Nursery Propagation and Field Planting of Kawayan Tinik (Bambusa banana Schultes) Branch Cuttings potatoes. Major Professor: Prof. Domingo V. Jacalne<br/><br/>Effects of hormone and nursery cultural treatments on the growth and development of kawayan tinik (Bambusa blumeana Schultes) branch cuttings were studied. Nursery experimentation was done at Calauan, Laguna for a 2-month period while<br/>field study was conducted at the Kabataang Barangay camp site, Mt. Makiling, for another 7-month period.<br/><br/>In the nursery, rooting and sprouting percentages were not significantly influenced by hormone treatment but root and sprout growth and development were significantly improved.<br/><br/>Survival in the field was found to be similar with the m- treated, however, shoot production, height and diameter, and biomass were remarkably stimulated.<br/><br/>Potted and transplanted stocks had similar quality in terms of number and length of roots and sprouts produced.<br/><br/>However, the former had better field performance with regards to survival, shoot production and dry matter weights of rhizome and roots.<br/>
