Pepper cuttings

[DaveinCoalinga]

I have 2 huge pepper plants, a goat weed and a devil's tongue that are just too big to bring in. So I am thinking of taking cuttings of them to root inside for next year. What is the best way to do this?

Buy rock wool, root starter chemicals, and some liquid nutriants. Use a sharp instrument, cut off a branch at a 45 degree angle, dip in your root starter chemical, place in rock wool.

Here's another method.

I transplant to rockwool with nothing but water....no cloning ammendments.

My success rate is over 90%....make sure your cutting instruments are sterile and your hands are clean.

Also have a humid environment, a good fluorescent light, and a lot of patience.

Here's one that just rooted. This one took 2weeks+ and looked real sad until the bottom started sprouting the other day

Oh! And it's got some new leaves!
