Time of Sowing: Time of sowing depends upon the time of seed ripening, the rate of growth of species and the size of the plant in demand etc. If the size of the plants to be planted out is small and the seed ripens in winter, sowing in spring can produce plants that are fit for planting. Budding, grafting etc. is done during rainy season. Sr. No. Crop Propagation Method Season/Month 1. Mango Stone Grafting June- Aug 2. Mango Softwood grafting July-Sept 3.

Pricking Pricking is the shifting of plants from one nursery bed to another or in the polybag/pot for better root and shoot growth. Pricking increases root growth and produces better and efficient root system in several species. While pricking, spacing is manipulated according to the requirement of the species at that particular growth stage. Pricking makes the plants hardier. Pricking can be done with a pointed slick or metal label. F. Irrigation Seed beds should be watered immediately after sowing. The polybags/pots can be irrigated with rose head can or polybags/pots should be kept in sunken beds about 25 to 30 cm deep so that flood irrigation can be adopted. Regular irrigations should be applied at an interval of 5 to 7 days during summer and 15 to 20 days during winter. Water should not be allowed to stagnate during rainy season. Light and frequent irrigations are preferred to heavy irrigations at long intervals. G. Weeding and Hoeing Weeding should be carried out regularly. Weeds should be destroyed early before they begin to compete for water and soil nutrients and before their growth makes hoeing difficult. Weeds should be eradicted before they flower so as to control their regeneration. H. Manures and Fertilizers Mixing of well-rotten Farm Yard Manure in the soil of the nursery helps to maintain its fertility. Nutrient status of the soil and the requirement of the species being grown should be assessed. Application of the nutrients and trace elements as per requirements should be made through soil placement or foliar spray. I. Lifting of Plants from Nursery Before removal from the nursery, plants should be thoroughly watered to loosen the soil and to avoid desiccation during transport until planting. Plants should be lifted carefully without any damage to roots, particularly the fine roots. Roots along with earth ball should be wrapped in grass or other material to prevent splitting of earth ball. <strong>Resource</strong> <strong>Book</strong> on Horticulture Nursery Management : 117
