Rooting Bay Leaf From Cuttings (Bay Laurel - Laurus Nobilis)

[@TxRiverElf]

About 8 months ago you reported 50% perished. Have you actually potted any of the survivors? And… After this experience, which is best specifically for bay leaf cuttings, water rooting or going to sandy soil for rooting? Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@fignutofficial]

unfortunately, i did not follow up with update video - i left it for too long and eventually lost the footage. i remember about 50% were succesfull. they were potted and given away to friends and neghbours. for bay leaves i had similar success with other rooting techniques. my preference is rooting in water as for me it is easier to follow what is going on. the trouble with bay leaves is that the whole process lasts much longer then for example figs or lavander, it takes 3-4 months, depending on temperature. so, patience is important as well as changing water regulary.. right now, i am rooting bay leaves from seeds, which also takes very long (similar) time. however, i did not take any footage this time.. i suggest you to try all possible techniques and work out which one works the best for your circumstances.. i hope this helps.. thank you for watching :)

Why did you cut part of the leaf off?

[@ellavonbuskirk2928]

For the first little while after you snip a plant, before it grows roots, having too many leaves can pull too many nutrients into sustaining the leaves instead of building roots, so snipping some of the leaves (leaving enough for photosynthesis) can force the plant to build roots in order to survive, instead of just keeping the existing leaves alive

[@maeumiapayo]

@@ellavonbuskirk2928I think they meant cutting the leaves in half that are still attached to the cutting
