🌱 How to Root Cuttings (Especially Great for Hoyas!)

Add a layer of perlite to the bottom of your cup, then top with Fluval Stratum.
Moisten the Stratum until it’s lightly damp.
Insert your cutting, ensuring the node is buried about ½ inch.
Optional: Cover with a clear cup (with ventilation holes) or place in a propagation box. A heat source can speed up rooting.
Place in bright, indirect light and keep warm (70–80°F).
Maintain slight moisture—keep the Stratum damp, not soggy.
Roots typically appear within 1–2 weeks and are ready for potting once they reach 1–2 inches long.
