Pomegranate Cutting Rooting Tutorial

   • Pomegranate Plant Care   Please Consider Subscribing 💚 Let's change the world one backyard at a time. This video provides a simple and highly effective tutorial on how to propagate pomegranate cuttings even without rooting hormone (0:04). Here's a breakdown of the process: • Substrate preparation (0:31-0:53): The video recommends a 50/50 mix of play sand and peat, or ground-up coco husk for a more sustainable option. • Taking cuttings (0:54-1:13): The presenter demonstrates how to select and cut appropriate sections from a pomegranate plant. • Preparing cuttings for planting (1:20-1:59): Clean off the bottom branches of the cutting—the parts that will be submerged in the soil. • Planting and covering (2:00-2:25): Plant the cuttings in the slightly moistened soil mixture. It's crucial not to make the soil too soggy, as the cuttings will be covered with a plastic bag to prevent evaporation. • Rooting and growth (2:48-3:16): The video shows successful rooting, with significant root development and new growth appearing from the top of the cuttings. • Pomegranate propagation success (3:22-3:32): The presenter highlights the ease and effectiveness of propagating pomegranates without rooting hormone, emphasizing the abundance of free plants you can create. • Cuttings from small plants (4:11-4:59): The video mentions that cuttings from even small, thin branches (about an eighth-inch wide) can root quickly, often in less than two weeks, as long as a plastic bag is used to prevent drying out. • Pruning for propagation (6:25-7:02): If you're pruning your pomegranate plant for shape, you can use the trimmed "lanky vines" or "apical branches" for propagation. Taking a six-inch segment from the end of a branch can also help the plant branch out by rerouting hormones.
