Description The experiment was conducted during consecutive years of 2002-2003 and 2003-2004 at Central Horticultural Experiment Station, Vejalpur (Godhra), Panchmahal, Gujarat to standardize method and time of propagation in jamun (Syzygium cuminii Skeels) under semiarid environment of western India. Patch budding and soft wood grafting were carried out at monthly interval comnlencing from September 2002 to August 2004. Patch budded plants sprouted earliest in July (16 days). Higher percentage of graft success was noted in March (40 %) in patch budded plants, whereas it was recorded to be highest in soft wood grafted plants in August (36 %). Soft wood grafted plants had also higher number of leaves than patch budded plants. Irrespective of scion and rootstock, maximum accumulation of nitrogen and carbohydrate content was recorded in March while it was found in lower concentration during September, October, Novenlber, December and January. Patch budding in March and soft wood grafting in July- August may be followed for multiplication of elite jamun plants.
