•Rooting process of cuttings: Make cuttings with one to three nodes and a growth point with RAIKLON (HORMONE-FREE):
Cut the selected stem from a growing, non-flowering plant using sharp, clean, and disinfected pruning shears. Then, remove most of the foliage, leaving the leaves—albeit trimmed—at the top of the stem, and place the cutting in a glass of purified water.
·Place RAIKLON in a small, narrow, tall container, with dimensions suitable to hold only the product we need and at the same time be almost full
Before placing the cutting in the tube containing RAIKLON, remove the lower part of the stem that has been in contact with the reverse osmosis water in the glass. This prevents the product from being used for a constant supply of moisture, which would eventually turn it into an impractical "paste" for the intended purpose.
·Then make an oblique cut in the stem, leaving one or two nodes above the cut.
Insert the part of the stem that will be buried in the substrate (1.5-2 cm) into the tube with RAIKLON
·The cutting coated with RAIKLON is inserted into a hole previously made in the substrate.
·Place the cuttings in a propagator at 22-23ºC, relative humidity of 70%, photoperiod 24/0 and PPFD: 60μmol/s.m² (4000 lux)
·Keep the leaves, twigs and stem moist at all times, applying osmosis water via foliar spray every 6-8 hours or whenever it is necessary to moisten the aerial part.
Water every 4-5 days with a RAIKLON solution in reverse osmosis water until the roots are visible, numerous, and well-developed.
