How to Grow Cuttings

Now that you've bought some cuttings from Scouts Plants, you are probably wondering how to grow them, each order will come with a sheet of paper with directions on how to grow your cuttings. There are two types of ways that we advise you to grow your cuttings at Scouts Plants, water or soil. For plants like Pothos, Monstera, and Peperomia, we recommend you grow them in water. For plants like the Thanksgiving Cactus or most species of Cacti, soil usually works better. When growing cuttings in water, you place the section where there is a node into the water, fully submerged. You can add rooting hormone to the water to speed up the process. With soil propagation, you just add your plant to the soil and let its roots grow. You can also add rooting hormone to the soil to speed up the process when using the soil propagation method.
