| I have about 75 semi-hardwood boxwood cuttings that have been stuck in a mixture of gritty sand and peat, sitting under an inverted clear Rubbermaid storage tote to preserve humidity and I mist them whenever it dries up a bit. It has been about two months and I haven't really checked to see if they are rooting.
They are on a plant stand with a couple of fluorescent tubes over the box, and the lights are on 24/7. Is this a problem? Do they need a light cycle? |
