Abstract
The present study was conducted in Department of sericulture, Forest college and research institute, Mettupalayam. In the study, we analysed the impact of reeling waste water on the plant propagation and growth of mulberry cuttings, reeling water samples were collected from reeling units in vadavalli, coimabtore district. Cuttings of V1 and G4 were selected and maintained in a pot culture, frequently irrigated with reeling water at different concentrations. Observations pertained to treatments were calculated at 30,60 and 90 days after planting, from that recordings, present investigation was concluded that the sprouting and other studied biometric traits except internodal distance in both V1 and G4 shows higher value at lowest concentration of reeling waste water i.e., T2 (25% reeling waste water + 75% tap water). Highest concentration of reeling waste water reduces the sprouting as well as growth of the mulberry cuttings due to the presence of more amount of elements which affects the metabolic activities of the plants. Except T5 (100% reeling waste water) all other concentrations were exhibited better propagation and growth of mulberry cuttings.
