Detailed explanation-1: -What Is Rooting Hormone? Rooting hormone products are chemicals that stimulate root growth, typically on plant cuttings. These synthetic commercial products mimic auxin, which is a natural plant hormone that stimulates root growth. Rooting hormone comes in powder, liquid, or gel form.
Detailed explanation-2: -A cutting is a small shoot or branch cut from a plant and placed in water, soil, or planting medium to root and form a new plant. Layering is bending and pegging the shoot of a living stem to the soil. The shoot takes root while still attached to the parent plant.
