Abstract: CRUZATE, LEO Q., Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, 1988, "Response of Cypress to Varying Concentration of Indole Butyric Acid (IBA) Grown at Different Soil Media", Prof. Amornita T.C. Sanchez, Adviser. The study was conducted from November 1987 to February 1988 at the College Floriculture Nursery, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite. The objectives were to determine the effects of various concentration of IBA and the different soil media on the rooting and survival of cuttings. It aimed to discover which of the rooting media used is most ef-fective for rooting cypress cuttings. Semi-hardwood cuttings about 18 centimeters long were used in this study. These were dipped for 12 hours at different concentration of Indole Butyric Acid, i.e., 50, 100 and 200 ppm. Some cuttings were not treated in order to serve as control. The cuttings were planted at the different soil media immediately after removing them from the solution. The different soil media used were garden soil, compost, seed, and combination of three soils. Results show that untreated cuttings grown in garden soil (0181), compost ( 0182) and combination of soil, sand, compost (0134) failed to root. Applica-tion of IBA regardless of the soil media used increased the percentage of rooting as well as the number and length of roots formed. Those treated with 200 ppm of IBA and planted in 0434 (combination of sand, compost and garden soil) had the highest percentage survival (60%). The number of length of roots formed from these cuttings ranked second in sand but the roots formed in the former were more branched and slender which were suited for digging and repotting, compared with those planted in sand which were whitish and brittle.
