Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Response of different apple clonal rootstocks to varied hydrothermal conditions using different media†was carried out at Experimental Farm of Division of Fruit Science, SKUAST-Kashmir during 2016-2017 and 2017-2018. During the investigation programme ten hilling materials were applied viz., Vermiculite, Saw dust, FYM, Vermicompost, Vermiculite+ Saw dust+ Pseudomonas, Vermicultite + Saw dust +Azotobacter, FYM + Vermicompost + Pseudomonas, FYM + Vermicompost + Azotobacter, Pseudomonas+ Azotobacter, Control (only soil was used as a hilling material). The experimental results shows that maximum mean media temperature (26.05 0C) was recorded under saw dust treatment followed by vermiculite+ saw dust+ Azotobacter (27.87 0C). Maximum mean soil moisture content (22.44%) was recorded in under vermiculite which was significantly, higher as compared to all other hilling media. The lowest media temperature (24.33 0C) and media moisture (20.80%) was recorded under control (only soil was use a hilling media). Among the various rootstock maximum mean media temperature and mean media moisture (24.00 0C and 21.66%) found in MM-106 whereas, minimum mean media temperature (22.75 0C) was found in MM-111and minimum mean media moisture (17.39%) was found in M9-T337.
