Has anyone used rooting hormone powder for water propagation or is it used only for soil? Any tips are appreciated!

I use it for my water props and it seems to work well.

I use SuperThrive for water props. It’s a good formula for props and starters, and can be dosed as low as a drop for very fragile plants
2개 좋아요Yes, I’ve had much success with it. I dip the cutting into the RH tap off the excess and put the cutting in the pot of potting soil, water if soil is really dry or wait a few days and water as needed.
