How long is the most suitable time to soak roots in rooting powder?
When learning about cuttings, we often see the words "rooting powder," and many flower enthusiasts are unclear about how long to soak roots in rooting powder. Some even don't know how to use rooting powder. Actually, we shouldn't use it according to what's said online, but rather according to the instructions of the rooting powder we purchased.
Cuttings: 11 methods to make cut flowers root quickly
There are many brands of rooting powder, but the ingredients are similar, mainly indolebutyric acid and naphthaleneacetic acid. The specific dosage depends on the instructions. The kind of rooting powder where you dip the seedling and then plant it is not recommended; that is used for large-scale planting conditions, and the effect is far worse than the soaking method. Most rooting powders require a soaking time of about 2 hours.
Woody plants and difficult-to-root plants need longer times, especially difficult-to-root plants, which sometimes need to be soaked for about 24 hours. For example, peach and pear are both difficult-to-root plants, and the soaking time is between 12-24 hours. Herbaceous plants require much less in terms of both dosage and time. Most herbaceous plants root more easily than woody plants. When using rooting powder for cuttings, not only must you master the dosage and soaking time, but the key point is air humidity. The ideal condition for cuttings is air humidity above 80%, which is the most favorable environment for survival.
