Those who love gardening may have questions on how to ensure perfect seed germination and propagating clones. You may have found a handful of tips online among which some actually work, some are wrong while some are indifferent and ineffective. The following tips are a foolproof way to boost the chances of success rate.
It is to be noted that when you seed indoors, it is entirely different from how you plant a seed outdoors wherein you prepare a plant bed, sprinkle generous number of seeds onto it and cover them with soil.
Planting the seeds:
Gardening equipments including pot, fertilized soil, propagation plugs, root stimulant etc are available at The Grow Depot. Their team would also assist in finding the apt products.
Rooting cuttings:
Some prefer clones/cuttings to seeds. If you want to go that way, do the cutting from a plant that is in the vegetative stage. Cut anywhere near the top of the plant since hormones are more concentrated there. Cut using sharp scissors and it should be 75-130mm in length. Scrape the last 25mm of the stem using scalpel. Pour some rooting hormone in a bottle and dip the cut stem in it before placing it inside a propagator. There are a number of propagators available in the market.
Perfect lighting is essential to stimulate the growth of the plant and there are specific lamps with the right watts to serve to aid plant growth. Choosing the right gardening equipments is half job done.
