DO NOT USE POTTING OR GARDEN SOIL. 

The best way to get your clippings to root. Once you receive them put them in water, then dip the wet side in rooting solution or hormone, or use a rooting gel without water. We use Clonex . Then place them in sterile soil (like bagged top soil) and place them under low light (LED grow lights work best) if not place outside where they will get about 2 hours of light a day. For cold or dry climates use a humidity dome. (A clear 2 liter cut in half to hold in humidity) and perhaps a heating pad but careful not to overheat! Always keep soil moist but drained and in under 30 days you will have rooted and sprouted plants. Feel free to message anytime. -Jill
