Abstract: An experiment was conducted at Floriculture Research Station, (Agricultural Research Institute) Rajendranagar, Hyderabad during August 2018 to October 2018 to study “Effect of sampling time and auxins concentration on rooting of Chrysanthemum cultivar Chandamama Yellow”. The cuttings were taken in three different months of August, September and October and treated with different auxins concentration of IBA, NAA and Rootex-1 powder along with control (distilled water) to study rooting ability. The study revealed that significant differences were recorded in Chrysanthemum cultivar Chandamama Yellow. Among different sampling times, the cuttings taken in August recorded minimum days taken to rooting (11.84 days), maximum root length (9.66 cm), number of roots per cutting (16.91), rooting percentage (90.63 %), fresh weight of roots (0.63 g) and dry weight of roots (0.09 mg). Among different auxins concentration minimum days taken to rooting (10.56 days), maximum root length (11.03 cm), maximum number of roots per cutting (20.56), rooting percentage (92.00 %), fresh weight of roots (0.95 g) and dry weight of roots (0.13 mg) was recorded with IBA 500 ppm. Among different treatment combinations minimum days taken to rooting (8.20 days), maximum root length (11.07 cm), maximum number of roots per cutting (22.47), rooting percentage (96.33 %), fresh weight of roots (1.26 g), dry weight of roots (0.20 mg) was recorded with cuttings taken in August + IBA 500 ppm at nursery condition.
