2. Cut at an angle with a blade

Use a sterilized blade to clean up the cut, make one angled cut, and the cut should be smooth.

3. Soak the branches in carbendazim

Soak the branches in carbendazim solution for two hours, then take them out and let them dry in a cool, ventilated place.

4. Remove some leaves

Remove the leaves near the base of the branch to make it ready for cuttings.
