Abstract:

Square the bases of all cuttings by use of a sharp pair of scissor to avoid one-sided rooting. Dip the cuttings in water (treated with a slight tinge of OMO soap detergent) and treat each cutting with 0.8% IBA hormone to a length of 1 cm from the base. Spray Dithane M45® at 2000 ppm on all cuttings to control fungal infections.
