Propagaion boost?

Post by Carpkel »

I am rooting some miscellaneous cacti and succulents. Has anyone used a heating pad under the cuttings and have had successfull results? Will it speed up the rooting of cuttings?
I do use rooting hormone, but I have some cuttings which are very slow to root.

Any heat will help especially that now we are heading into fall.
