Propagation

Martin O\’Sullivan asked 15 years ago

I have recently taken soft wood cuttings. The procedure I took to plant them was as follows: I dipped them in hormone rooting powder then put them in a pot of compost.I then added water to firm.I then covered the pot with clear polythene bag and sealed with a elastic band.My question is: Should I water the cuttings every day or leave the pot alone sealed in the polythene bag?

The idea of the polythene is to retain moisture and watering is not needed usually until the cuttings root.

Water before insertion and a light sprinkle afterwards.
