An experiment "Effect of Indolebutyric acid (IBA) and planting times on the growth and rooting of peach cuttings" was carried out at the Agricultural Research Institute (ARI), Tarnab, Peshawar during 2005. Peach cuttings were planted on 10th January, 10th February, 10th March and were treated with 0, 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 mgL-1 IBA. Among the planting time 10th January proved to be superior regarding number of branches per plant (5.68), shoot length (30.31 cm), number of roots per plant (13.00), root length (13.37 cm), root weight (9.35 g) and plant survival (54.28%). IBA concentrations increased the growth parameters irrespective of planting time. Planting time x IBA levels interaction showed that maximum number of branches per plant (8.55), number of roots per plant (23.00), root length (19.62 cm), root weight (13.25 g), and plant survival (85.71%) were observed in cuttings treated with 2000 mgL-1 IBA, planted on 10th January.
