No, I didn't use any rooting agent at all. The plants were placed among some fruit trees; so, it was partial shade/sun. Never leave plants exposed to full sun. I started collecting my cutting around April/May when the large hydrangea bushes were coming out of hibernation. Make sure the stems are green.
Yeah, there’s no need to water them at all as long as the bag is tightly fitted around the pot. So far mine have been in the bags for 2 months and they continue to grow. I tried transplanting them into pots without the bags and those died immediately. So, I think they will need to stay in the bags for several months before they’e strong enough.
Appreciate the tips!! I haven't had much luck so far . I live in a very humid area and was not adding the plastic bag. I'll try that next and hopefully get these things going!

are you saying that you don't have to water them while they are still in the bag? how long do I need to keep them in the bag?
I was told to put the clipping in a jar of water and wait to see some roots come out. then I was supposed to put it in soul outside. it did not work.
I will do it as you suggest and I hope I can get my own hydrangeas soon. 10x a lot.
