Bubbling Brug Rootings!

20 years ago

I saw this method on the Brugmansia forum. The aquarium bubblers are supposed to help the brug cutting root faster and avoid stagnant water.

I bought a plastic storage container and 2 bubblers.

Then a got a wire shelf unit to hold the cuttings in place.

Looks like fun but I must admit, the cutting you stuck in a water bottle did just fine on its own. : )

Nice set up--keep us posted! My lone brug cutting from a friend is still sitting in a glass of water in a west facing window....slowly dropping leaves and not showing any signs of rooting, sigh. Maybe the aeration will help?

Updates are encouraged...thanks for sharing yours!
Take care,
Grant
