Want endless coleus plants in your garden without spending a dime? In this video, I walk you through the complete, step-by-step guide to water propagating coleus from stem cuttings… from taking the first cut to planting them directly into your garden beds!
Coleus is one of the easiest and most rewarding plants to propagate. We’ll start by checking out the incredible root growth on cuttings I started just 10 days ago, then dive into the exact technique for taking healthy cuttings, where to make your cuts, and how to prep the stems for success! I’ll also share why water propagation is my favorite method over soil rooting (less babysitting and you can watch the roots
develop!). Finally, we’ll plant out the rooted cuttings into the garden, take a quick tour of where they ended up, and cover essential fertilizer and pest management tips to keep them thriving!
🌱 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
• The incredible 10-day root progress on water-propagated coleus
