Propagation is the process of creating new plants from seeds, cuttings, or other plant parts. It is a vital technique for gardeners, allowing the multiplication of favourite plants, the preservation of heirloom varieties, and the expansion of gardens at a minimal cost. Propagation can be done through various methods, such as seed starting, rooting cuttings, or dividing existing plants.
Each method has its own requirements for light, humidity, and temperature, but all share the goal of fostering healthy root development and strong growth. Mastering plant propagation empowers gardeners to cultivate diverse and thriving gardens.
