Default Re: Rooting hardwood cuttings

Today (Sunday) an outbreak of hairy white fungus was again found in the same pot of cuttings. I removed it from the enclosure, cleaned the cuttings, and sprayed them with a Physan 20 mixture. (A half teaspoon was added to 1 cup of water to make a 0.2% solution.) The pot was set to one side for 6 hours, sprayed again, and then returned to the enclosure.

The growth buds on all of the fig cuttings have swelled to the point of showing internal green growth. The growth buds on the Diospyros lotus cuttings all doubled in size during the last 24 hours. The growth buds on the pomegranate cuttings might have swelled slightly, but nothing is really expected to happen with them for several days.
