Since I have bought my herbs from Baguio, I have been trying to regrow some cutting from them.I have tried propagating Mint, Basil, Dill, Rosemary and Thyme by cuttings, and there are some ups and downs to rooting and letting them grow.
I have tried to cut some Basil, Rosemary, Mint, Dill and Tarragon, and put them on a glass with tap water.
In about 6th to 7th day, the roots of Basil and Dill have sprouted! Yey!
I was a bit impatient in waiting, and not all the cutting of Basil, Mint and Rosemary made to to day 7. But my hopes didn't fade as I saw the leaves were very healthy and alive. But some of them wilted and others rotten from water, I am not sure if I have drowned it but other cuttings were surviving and rooted. But the optimistic me continued to monitor and observe and give a couple of more days to see if they will grow root.
In about 10 to 11 days, the roots were longer, some of the ones that didn't rooted now had their roots starting to grow.
I will keep you posted on how will this cuttings grow more roots.
As of today, I have more that I propagate from cuttings of Mint and Basil from Supermarket, yes, the usual herbs you buy to add in your recipe. ;)
I will have an updated post on this on how I get the cutting and regrow :)
How about you? Have you tried any propagation from cuttings? Let me know which method works best for you!
Hope you have enjoyed reading!
Happy gardening!
