Misty Cuttings

One of the first photographs that was posted on here was of our new greenhouse, which at the time was filled with seedlings but its main purpose was to house our mist propagator. This is used to do all our cuttings. It is a wooden tray with sides that is lined first with sand and then has a heated cable laid on it and then that is covered with sand and then there is a layer of peat, the cuttings are placed in the peat and over the top is a mist sprayer which keeps the leaves moist and hopefully after two to three weeks we can take out rooted cuttings. I am please to say we have now got saleable plants in the nursery!!
