Growing hibiscus plants from cuttings is a simple and effective method to propagate new plants. 🌺
🌱 Materials Needed:
Healthy hibiscus plant (for cuttings)
Sharp knife or garden scissors
Small pots or grow bags
Well-draining potting mix (cocopeat + garden soil + compost)
Rooting hormone (optional, but helpful)
Transparent plastic cover or polythene bag (for humidity)

✂️ Step-by-Step Process:
1. Select the Right Cutting
Choose a semi-hardwood stem (not too soft or too woody).
The cutting should be 4 to 6 inches long and have at least 2-3 leaf nodes.
Best time: Early morning or evening during the spring or early rainy season.
2. Prepare the Cutting
Cut just below a node.
Remove the bottom leaves, leaving only the top 1-2 leaves.
If leaves are too large, cut them in half to reduce water loss
Dip the bottom end in rooting hormone (powder or gel)—optional but increases success rate.

3. Prepare the Pot
Use a small pot or grow bag with drainage holes.
Fill with a light mix of:
40% cocopeat
30% garden soil
30% compost or vermicompost
You can also add a bit of sand or perlite for extra drainage.

4. Plant the Cutting
Make a small hole using a stick.
Insert the cutting 1-2 inches deep.
Firm the soil around it gently.

5. Create a Humid Environment
Cover the pot with a clear plastic bag to retain moisture (mini greenhouse effect).
Make a few small holes for air circulation.
Keep in bright indirect light, not direct sunlight.

6. Watering and Care
Mist or water gently to keep the soil moist (not soggy) Check daily for dryness.
Avoid overwatering, as it can cause rot.

⏳ Rooting Time
Roots will start forming in 2-3 weeks.
You can check by gently tugging the cutting — if there’s resistance, roots have formed.

🌸 Transplanting
After 4-6 weeks, when the cutting has a good root system, transplant it into a larger pot or garden bed.
Water well and place in partial sunlight for a few days before shifting to full sun.
