This will be one of what I hope will be a series of posts about which methods work for me. I'll updated them as I learn from doing or from others, but everything here will be the results of my personal testing.
Cloning in Soil:
Day 1 -
Started with a cutting from growing mother plant. About 6" tall with about five nodes (leafsets).
Cloning in Soil:
Day 1 -
Started with a cutting from growing mother plant. About 6" tall with about five nodes (leafsets).
- Pulled off all but the top three nodes.
- As I pulled them down, I tried to strip off the outer stem. I ended up with the leafset and what looked like a piece of thick dental floss a few inches long.
- The goal was to create a surface where roots would grow out from.
- Razor scraped the bottom 1"
- Using a sharp and cleaned razor blade (cleaned with peroxide), I gently scraped off the top layer of the stem to expose the inner surface on the bottom one inch of the stem.
