Recently I took a few cuttings from my plants in the garden. The cuttings themselves had some roots attached.I potted them up and watered and placed them in a make -shift cold frame.Question: Is this Cold frame idea a good way of trying to grow plants and if so what procedures should I take in order to maintain healthy plants?
I have recently taken soft wood cuttings. The procedure I took to plant them was as follows: I dipped them in hormone rooting powder then put them in a pot of compost.I then added water to firm.I then covered the pot with clear polythene bag and sealed with a elastic band.My question is: Should I water the cuttings every day or leave the pot alone sealed in the polythene bag?
