Plant Cuttings and Seed Starts

Flower pots soil mix. Mix 1/2 potting soil with 1/2 peat and put a thin layer of dirt over the seeds. Keep them out of direct sun until they are an inch or two tall.

Use the above soil mix for the following method with seeds and root cuttings. The soil mix is the same as above. I use a root simulator water mix to water the plant the first time.

Starting seeds in a flower pot use the second paragraph below to create a greenhouse in your flower pot.

Cuttings of plants are done by cutting the stem or limb in a shape 45 to 90 degree angle to expose as much of the inside of the plant as possible. Cut all of the green off and plant. Place the cut piece in some water than some root hormone. Tap the excess off. (Follow the instructions that came with the root hormone.) Using a pencil or round item bigger them the stem or limb, poke a hole in the soil mix. Place your cutting in the hole without knocking the root hormone off of the cutting. Press the dirt down around your cutting and water it lightly.

Place a piece plastic over the top of the flower pot. Seal it off so no water will escape so it will create a greenhouse effect. Place it in a place that will be out of direct sun. Watch it to make sure it does not over heat. If it does start to wilt, open the plastic a little. Once the plant starts growing new starts in about a week or two, you will be able to dig it up with the dirt surrounding your plant about 1”-2” around and underneath your plant. Transplant it to a permanent location.

Bare Root Plants and Planting Them

Dig the plant up and remove all of the dirt from the roots. Place the plant in a fresh bucket of water for about an hour or two. Wash all dirt off of the roots.

The plant may show some signs of stress like wilting leaves. Some plants may not survive due to this stress but you should have a success rate of 80% or better with bare root plants. Your plant should look like it has some life or almost in perfect condition.

Wait until dusk to dig a hole bigger than the root ball. Place the plant in the hole and cover the roots. Pack the dirt down and fill the hole in with the rest of the dirt. Stump/pack the dirt down to remove all air pockets in the hole. Soak the area with water until it runs off two times. Water the plant until you see new green growth.

If you have to plant your plant in direct sun, you may have to water it for a longer period of time. Watch the plant for signs of stress. You may have to dig it up and place it in a different spot which will add more stress to your plant. You may have to follow the instructions in the Plant Cuttings and Seed Starts from above to have the best success rate with some plants.

Do a word search on Google to learn all you can about your plant before it arrives.
