Experiments on utilization of the paper pots in planting the tea cuttings were carried out to reduce the transplant damages. Being planted in the paper pots, the cuttings rooted well and developed into good saplings to reduce the transplant damages. Transplanting the saplings in the tea field, it was better to plant the paper pots with them. Planting the cuttings in summer and transplanting them in the next spring, it was better to use 10 cm paper pots (in diameter).<BR>The cuttings planted in the paper pots in summer could be transplanted in autumn, and also those planted in autumn could be trans-planted in the next spring, the latter being practical and it being good to use 7.5 cm paper pot in this case.<BR>Using 10 cm paper pots in summer, two, two or three, and three cuttings with four, three, and two leaves respectively could be planted in a paper pot, and they developed into good saplings and good plants after transplanting. Planting the cuttings in 10 cm paper. pots, soil mixed CDU (70 g/m<SUP>2</SUP>) was better .used to develop them well. From the above experiments it was found that the period in the cutting nursery was shortened using the paper pots.
