Investigations were carried out to grow three tissue cultured banana varieties viz. William (W-11), Grand Naine (G-9) and Basrai (B) supplemented with peat moss and soil in different ratios under screen house conditions. The treatments comprised of different ratios i.e. 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 of peat moss and soil and peat moss and soil only. Four weeks old rooted banana explants were transplanted in polythene bags. Data collected after sixty days of transplantation regarding growth parameters revealed that maximum survival percentage (100.0), plant height (29.0 cm) and number of leaves (6.3) were recorded from plants grown in polythene bags containing peat moss only. Shoot length and number of leaves were observed as 25.4, 23.7, 24.5 and 17.9 cm and 5.8, 5.0, 4.6 and 4.0 for 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 peat moss and soil ratios respectively. While, minimum survival (80%) and growth parameters were recorded in all tissue cultured varieties of banana in soil only. It was concluded that for primary hardening purpose of tissue cultured banana plants peat moss alone or in combination with soil as 1:1 (peat moss and soil) performed better under screen house conditions.
