My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

arborvitae cutting propagation

12 years ago

When is the best time to take arborvitae semi-hardwood cuttings(before or after the first frost or ...) ?
Is that a good idea to use honey or cinnamon as rooting hormone for the cuttings?
What temperature should the cuttings be kept in? Can I keep them outside (where the temperature can fall to -10 celsious) covered with a clear plastic in a shaded place?
Is it good to spray cuttings' foliage every 3 to 4hours?
How much should the diameter of the cuttings be approximately?
Thank you
