PLANT PROPAGATION BY CUTTINGS: Practical Guide & Experiment Logbook ibook

Designed for home growers, plant lovers, and propagation enthusiasts, Plant Propagation by Cuttings by Botanica Studio is much more than a notebook: it is a practical guide and structured experiment logbook created to help you understand, record, and improve every propagation project.

Carefully designed in a 7" × 10" format, the book combines clear explanations with generous writing space, allowing you to compare methods, follow each cutting over time, and learn from your own results.

What will you find inside?

• Clear Propagation Foundations: Understand what a cutting loses when separated from the mother plant, what it needs to survive, and the difference between producing roots and establishing a stable plant.
• Cutting Selection and Preparation: Learn how to assess the mother plant, identify nodes and buds, select comparable material, prepare clean cuts, and decide which leaves to retain or remove.
• 25 Two-Page Propagation Projects: Record the starting material, preparation, rooting medium, environmental conditions, chronological observations, interventions, transplanting, establishment, and final outcome.
• Rooting Media Comparison: Explore propagation in water, perlite, sphagnum, substrate, and other systems, while keeping the main variables as consistent as possible.
• Environmental Monitoring: Observe humidity, light, temperature, ventilation, moisture, tissue condition, callus formation, roots, algae, cloudiness, odor, and deterioration.
• Transplanting and Acclimation: Evaluate whether the root system is sufficiently developed and document the transition to a new medium and growing environment.
• Comparison and Review Pages: Calculate success rates, compare methods, identify seasonal patterns, examine repeated failures, and define what to adjust in the next project.

The book follows the Botanica Studio learning cycle:

Observe · Record · Compare · Adjust

Use it as a practical guide, a working logbook, and a tool for continuing to learn from every propagation cycle.
