To root my cuttings...hmmm...I do alot of things....the best way I've found
so far tho is....find a willow tree...cut some branches off of it....cut
them in two inch sections and put them in a pot of water on low for 2
hours....let it sit for about 12 hours....drop my cuttings in the "tea" for
about 12 hours....pull them out, slap a little take root on them and stick
them in pots in the greenhouse...start seeing buds in about 3 weeks...roots
I start looking for anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks...when they are good and
strong...pull them out and pot them up indiviudally....

how about you?
