the willow water is to mostly to help in preventing and controlling disease...

Hummm...very interesting indeed Debe' Thank you!

Randy,would you suppose that would work not being in water at the time?
You know how you cut the stems one again underwater before trying to root them. I have cut a slit in the center with my pruners but that was under water.
Wonder if it actually in reality makes a difference.

I find that cutting under water is more for when you are putting in a vase...it will help extend the time in a vase...also adding one half of an asprin to the water and allowing it to disolve ...we did this at the florist I worked at and also my duaghter when she worked at one in Sacramento...

My vast experience has only been 4 attempts with 3 of them being successful and I didn't smash or bruise the end at all. But I could have used an anvil type pruner and that could have bruised the cutting slightly.

I have one container of my Altissimo cuttings that have callosed over at the top. Has anyone had this happen before? If so what causes this?

I took three of these rose's that look like they may root .Dipped the cuttings in Takeroot and potted them yesterday.Hopefully with my finger's,eye's and toe's crossed some take root

Kale I have some cutting's covered with a large clear bag.I have some uncovered in a hug pot outside,I alway's leave them outside not cold enough here to freeze them.Most root well for me but these or florist rose's.Not sure if they will take root but hope they will.
