A present study was undertaken, to determine the most appropriate time and method of budding of peach (Prunus persica Batsch) cv. Shan-e-Punjab on different rootstocks to achieve the maximum bud take and budding growth, by budding peach cv. Shan-e-Punjab on peach, plum and apricot rootstock by T, inverted T and patch from 15 June to 1 August at 15 days interval. The results showed that inverted 'T' budding took minimum number of days for full sprouting in plum (17.99) and apricot (18.24) rootstock. Whereas, in peach T budding took 17.58 days for same. Among different dates, plants budded on 15th July took minimum number of days to full sprouting in peach (13.88), plum (14.66) and apricot (14.21) rootstocks. Budding on 1 July recorded maximum bud take success with 93.33% in peach, 86.66% in plum and 86.66% in apricot. Maximum scion length and girth were recorded on 1 July in peach (49.23 cm and 6.29 mm), plum (48.15 cm and 6.07 mm) and apricot (38.58 cm and 6.09 mm) respectively after 120 days after budding (DAB). Inverted T budding produces maximum scion length and girth in plum (37.73 cm and 4.98 mm) and apricot (32.83 cm and 5.10 mm). Whereas, the maximum scion length and girth (41.76 cm and 5.30 mm) in peach were observed in T after 120 DAB. From the present studies, it can be concluded that budding through inverted 'T' and T on 1 July gave maximum bud take and budding growth.
