This experiment was conducted to examine the method and time of budding in kiwifruit propagation. In this study, "Hayward" seedlings were used as rootstock in the field conditions. The same cultivar was used for grafting scion. Chip and T budding were used as budding types. The buddings were performed 15th April, 1st May, 15th May, 1st June, 1st August, 15th August, 1st September and 15th September. Bud take rate, bud sprouting rate, graft shoot diameter and graft shoot length were determined as experimental parameters after grafting. All budding methods and budding times were found to be suitable for kiwifruit propagation. However, the highest mean percent of bud take and sprouting rate were obtained with chip budding performed on 1st May, 15th May, 1st September and 15th September. The highest mean shoot diameter and shoot length were obtained with chip budding performed on 15th August, 1st September and 15th September.
