Using a Rooting Hormone Powder to propagate plant cuttings increases the chance that the new plant will thrive. Taking a cutting from a plant and growing it produces a new plant identical to the parent plant. This is a reliable and inexpensive way to propagate your favorite plants and the best way to grow new difficult-to-propagate plants. Stem cuttings are the most common, but plants can also be grown from root cuttings and leaf cuttings. When the Rooting Hormone Powder is used correctly, it causes the cutting to develop roots quickly and be more robust than cuttings that don’t receive the rooting hormone. Most homeowners use it primarily on ornamental plants in the landscape and to propagate succulents.
Using a rooting hormone to propagate plant cuttings increases the chance that the new plant will thrive. Taking a cutting from a plant and growing it produces a new plant identical to the parent plant.

Stem cuttings are the most common, but plants can also be grown from root cuttings and leaf cuttings.
Root cuttings are just what they sound like. They are pieces of the root of a parent plant that will eventually produce a new plant. Pull the soil back from the root area of the parent plant. Cut 2-inch pieces of slender roots and recover the root area of the parent plant. Roll the root cuttings in the rooting hormone and plant them shallowly in a rooting medium. Keep the medium moist but not wet.
Root cuttings are frequently taken in the fall to give the plant the entire winter to produce a new plant by spring.
Remove a fresh, healthy stem cutting from a parent plant using a clean knife or shears. Use only cuttings from vigorous and healthy plants, and make sure the growing tip is between 3 inches and 8 inches long. Moisten the bottom few inches of the cutting so the rooting hormone will adhere to it. Pour a little rooting hormone out of the container and dip or roll the bottom few inches of the cutting in the rooting powder.
Do not dip the cutting directly into the rooting hormone container. Don’t apply the powder any higher than the planting depth. Shake the excess powder off by lightly tapping the cutting against the edge of the container. Make a hole in the potting medium with a pencil or similar tool. Make sure the planting hole is wide enough that the rooting hormone is not rubbed off as you sink the cutting into the soil.
