Plant the Cutting
Insert the soaked cutting into a pot filled with moist, well-draining soil. You can also plant directly into the garden if conditions are mild. Make sure at least one or two nodes are buried beneath the surface.
Create a Humid Environment
Cover the cutting with a clear plastic bottle (cut in half) or place a plastic bag loosely over the pot. This helps maintain humidity, a key factor in root development.
Water Gently
Keep the soil lightly
moist, but not soggy. Mist the leaves occasionally to maintain humidity.
Caring for the Cuttings After Planting
Keep the cuttings in a warm, bright spot out of direct sunlight. Within two to three weeks, you should begin to see signs of new growth—a positive indication that roots are forming. You can gently test by giving the cutting a soft tug; resistance means roots are anchoring.
