Commercially plum is multiplied by budding and grafting which is a difficult exercise for unskilled farmers. Therefore, multiplication through semi hard wood stem cuttings in mist house has been studied with six treatment of indole-3-butyric acid concentrations (0, 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500 and 3000 ppm) at Horticulture Research Center, HNBGU, Srinagar Garhwal, Uttarakhand during the year 2016-17 under Ph.D. discipline. Cuttings were treated by quick dip (2 minute) method and planted in disposable glass. All observations were registered after 90 days of planting the cuttings under mist chamber. Among all the IBA treatments, cuttings treated with 1000 ppm IBA concentration resulted significantly highest in respect of fresh weight of shoot (0.26g), dry weight of shoot (0.099g), rooting percentage (71.67%), fresh weight of root (0.123g) and dry weight of root (0.028g) followed by 1500 ppm IBA treatment. The view of root and shoot growth indicated that their growth is affected by IBA level as well as by the growth of each other.
