Nice, they'll be ready for next sprint, in about 6 months.

Right?!

Cut back before 4th of July to make more compact. Root those clippings to double the plants.

Thank you very much for sharing 🌸🌱✂️ When I start I label the plants but when I pot them up I don't. That's always tough with pumpkins, cucumbers 🥒 and zucchini because the leaves 🍃 look so similar. Have a wonderful Sunday 🏖🌞

When is a good time to do this? Someone just gave me some cuttings and I want to propagate them.

[@serenababy6358]

How long should rooting hormone last and how should it be stored? Ive had bad luck with propagation so im not sure if its me, the flowers or my rooting hormone. Thank you for the video!

[@ModernGardener]

Rooting hormone is good for a couple years if stored in a cool dry place. A little goes a long way so make sure to tap off the excess when rooting.

Thank you, very helpful, and well-explained video, we are in Florida very hot and sunny day, and hard freeze cold, no snow. How do I take care of and propagate my mums, need your suggestion? Thank you

[@ModernGardener]

Thanks for your comment! We’re not entirely sure about how to take care of propagated mums in Florida. So sorry. Maybe there’s a local nursery in your county or region who could speak to that.

[@sairaahmed3475]

Ok, thanks for your response 😊

[@ModernGardener]

Sorry we couldn’t have been of more help! Good luck, let us know how it goes.

[@sairaahmed3475]

@@ModernGardener Thanks, I will let you know 😊

Use colored craft sticks, then just write "Mum" with a marker on one stick, to let you know everything in the tray is a mum, even if you have different colors,. You can add an "A" or "P" to denote annual or perennial. I am too busy to label everything- lol! Once planted, toss the sticks back in a bag for next time.
