Basic cutting question--how damp?

Chris Stromberger
15 years ago

New to propagating cuttings. Trying bougainvillea. Very small scale. The setup I have is basically a large tupperware container with some small peat pots inside with one cutting in each pot. Basic question is, how damp to keep things? Should I leave the lid on almost all the time, so that it's very humid in there, or will that bring mold/fungus? The other option to me is to remove the lid daily, and mist with a spray gun to keep the cuttings from drying out, and then replace the lid overnight, while at work, etc.

Any basic tips appreciated!

Thanks,

Chris
