Cuttings on pineapple guava / Feijoa

4 years ago

I did a bunch of pineapple guava cuttings (seedling) this weekend before looking up information on the best methods. I did read this article as well and tried to take most of my cuttings from the bottom.

I put the cuttings in a sphagnum peat moss (85%) and perlite mixture in large plastic cups. I plan of misting the leaves but was wondering if I should keep the soil wet or just mist the leaves and top soil lightly? I completely watered the soil and let it drain off before putting them in the container. I’m worried the wet soil might rot the stem. The cuttings are new growth from this year but do appear to be hard.

My house temperature is between 68-72 degrees, should I use heat mats to warm the soil up and create more humility in the containers?
