bongoman Posted August 8, 2013 I have a few central cuts from some bridgesii—they are not growing tips, and aren't huge, about 10-15cm long and and half that in diameter. I'm wanting to propagate them this coming growing season and am wondering if it is best to do by planting vertically or horizontally? Many thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foo Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) There is no best, only different. Both work well IMO. I will add, if you have forgotten witch way is up. then go horizontal. Edited August 8, 2013 by eatfoo 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
upside Posted August 8, 2013 I've read by getting them to root horizontally, the chance of more pups increases. couldn't hurt to try if you have a few pieces. Vertically placed you will/should have a great success rate. Make sure the ends are hard and calloused before you put them in tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jox Posted August 8, 2013 I think the first two replies have said everything I thinking . Good luck with them bongoman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bongoman Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) Thanks! I might try both ways, I have enough pieces to experiment a little here. I realise that if going vertical, the cutting needs to be planted the right way up and I found this guide to pachanoi's here: http://www.sacredcactus.com/logbuds/index16.htm and guess I can figure it out with a bridgesii.
