Default Re: Propagation Methods

I understand it. The method! Not the language! And my opinion both of you are correct.

I do pretty much the same as he does in the 2nd. I prune roots back and cut the pstem way back. Even if i’m replanting right then! Cutting the pstem back helps focus on roots and not keeping the leaves alive. It also prevents choking and other problems.

The pit creates warmth, humidity, and darkness. Great conditions for short term storage and for root development. I think it is a great idea for short term storage and to get the pups rooted and “jump-started” for field planting.
