Every batch of cuttings is a brand-new story and a myriad of variables influence successful rooting. Time of year, hormones (powder, solution, or gel), mist propagation, bottom heat, heated mist, substrate drainage, light (intensity and photoperiod) and the character of each cutting is a determinant.
