Abstract :In this study, it was aimed to determine the root abilities and growth performances of 9 different clonal rootstock cuttings, which were planted at two different times, in pumice and zeolite media. According to the testing results, while the maximum rooting was observed in the cuttings of Pixy (87,7%) rootstock planted in zeolite medium in March, the minimum rooting was in the cuttings of M9 (1,1%) rootstock planted in zeolite medium in February. While there was no rooting in MaxMa14 and GF677 rootstocks in both periods, no rooting was also observed in the cuttings of M9 rootstock planted in pumice medium in February. While the most different diameter increment and the best shoot growth were observed in SL64 rootstock planted in pumice medium in February, the best root growth was determined to be in MM111 rootstock planted in zeolite medium in March.
