Beautiful Roots on Cuttings in Hydroponic Bed (Free Plants Forever)
I started with cutting from perineal kale. While checking on cover crops near a row of wildflowers, these plants hid. Each cutting is a sample of new growth, then pushed into a hydroponics bed. It took four weeks to get to roots.
Now that this kale has roots, I am potting it with other spring starts. Kale can go out before the frost, but these plants are too tender. They will live in the greenhouse for a few weeks until new growth.
You can save plants from season to season with proper planning. Taking cuttings of plants is a cloning method that multiplies your plant stock. These plants will be under a lot of stress, so be sure to introduce new plants too.
Ten minutes of cutting gives me 10 to 20 new plants to pot up. That’s a tremendous saving, plus it gives me an early start on spring planting. Another option is to let the plant go to seed, but that’s not always possible.
Learning how to propagate plants helps adapt to short growing seasons, wet conditions, and other environmental impacts that won’t let a plant go to seed. Look at those beautiful roots. The survival rate of cuttings may be average if you don’t have a propagation bench.
Using a hydroponic bed is second best to a propagation system that uses misting or sand. However, you must use what you have until you have the habit or time to build something better. Whether seed or propagation, the more plants you can grow, the better.
