prepared black currant cuttings for mist propagation in our greenhouse
prepared black currant cuttings for mist propagation in our greenhouse. These are from a consort currant bush I planted twenty years ago, because it’s old and large there’s all kinds of new vigorous growth for cuttings. From this step they’re dipped in rooting hormone and stuck in flats with a 50/50 mix of coarse perlite and peat.
