Nursery reboot update... getting my mist beds set up again to take cuttings.
They are about 6 inches deep filled with concrete sand. 3' wide by 24' long.
I can fit about 4500 -5000 cuttings in here.
After it is cleaned out, I'll set up the intermittent mist system, which is made from 4 misting heads, a propagation water controller, and a water valve I can control from the controller.
The controller will turn on about 15 seconds every 10 - 12 minutes to mist the cuttings.
The cuttings are cut with multiple lead nodes. The bottom leaves are stripped off and only the top left on, and those are trimmed as well. They are then dipped in rooting hormone and put in the sand. The mist keeps them from drying out until they root.
