"Effect of potting media on growth and survival of cashew grafts (Anacardium occidentale L.) cv. Vengurla 4" was conducted at nursery No.1, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture Dr. B. S. K. K. V. Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri during the year 2017-19. The experiment was executed in randomized block design with five and four replications respectively. The five treatments consist of Control (i.e. Soil + FYM 3:1), Soil + FYM (1:1), Cocopeat (100%), Soil + Cocopeat (1:3), Soil+ FYM+ Rice Husk+ Cocopeat (1:1:1:1). In this experiment survival, morphological attributes was observed periodically. The survival, morphological parameters such as plant height (cm), girth of graft (mm), length of new sprout (cm), number of leaves, leaf area (cm2), absolute growth rate (cm/ day), relative growth rate (cm/ cm/ day), root length (cm) and dry weight of root(g) were significantly influenced by different potting media. In potting medium, the highest survival percentage (93.00%) and growth was observed in T5 i.e. soil + FYM + rice husk + cocopeat (1:1:1:1).
