this would be epic if it worked with vegetable plants.

whick period of the year do this?

[johndela1]

how do you come to this conclusion? I've read both sides (use rooting hormone or people saying it isn't needed). I've seen that a plant will root when the temp and humidity in the doom are ideal.

Have you ever say done 10 plants with hormone 10 without.

I haven't seen that those without don't root any differently.

From my own observations I would say it is not all that important.

Well I was gonna ask a question on a specific plant, but it looks like nobody checks up on these expert village vids. They should start doing that more. Lazy bastards.
