Rose Propagation & Exchange

Another question about rooted florist roses

17 years ago

Hi! I have already two more rooted roses and I'm still confused. When repotting and taking them out of the greenhause, should I cover them for a couple of days with bottles or ziplok bags or just leave them open under the lights? I don't want to lose them. Thank you for your answers.

No expert here, but I would do it very slowly. They are used to an enviornment that is humid. If you change it drastically it can kill the cuttings. I would do it slowly in stages. This way they will slowly transition.

Good luck.
