Summary
The book begins with techniques for growing plants from seed. Next, there are instructions for taking cuttings from established plants and taking leaf and root cuttings - procedures that will save you a fortune. Dividing plants is equally easy and you can even transform suckers into separate plants and sever offsets and runners, giving a bigger crop next year. Once you have mastered the basics, layering couldn't be easier. And if you can't stop propagating, there's more on stooling, dropping and air layering, and a section on grafting.
