Problems with the rooting of cuttings, as a rule, does not occur, and the transplant procedure can be done at any time in the summer, although the gardeners advise them to do this at the end of June or in early July. The process occurs as follows:

For the shilling, plants are chosen by age 2-3 years. Sliced \u200b\u200bshoots should be 8-10 cm long, have 2 interstices.
Two lower sheets are removed from the cuttings, those that are located above are cut by half.
For landing, a mixture of sand and peat is prepared, into which seedlings are deepened only with the lower interstille.
