How to Use Hormex Rooting Powder
BEFORE YOU GET STARTED - All propagation should be done indoors in a controlled environment where you can manage moisture, humidity, and provide bright, indirect light. Cuttings should be of fresh growth from a healthy mother plant or tree.
- Use straight blade shears to cut 3" - 8" of fresh growth at a 45° angle just below a node or leaf joint.
- Trim off bottom leaves to help the cutting focus on root development.
- Moisten cut end of the stem with Hormex Liquid or clean room temperature water and dip 1" into Hormex Rooting Powder.
- Place the cutting 1" deep into a rooting cube or other starter medium. Keep lightly moist and ensure bright indirect light.
Tips from the Pros
- PRO TIP 1: Keep grow medium lightly moist. Use a dome or bag for humidity until roots form.
- PRO TIP 2: Tug gently to test for root formation. If there’s resistance, roots have likely developed.
- PRO TIP 3: Avoid contaminating the container by never placing unused powder back in it.
