Okay, hear me out…this is my favorite example to give regarding plant care after propagation
Whenever you shave, do you just hop out of the washroom and go about your day like usual? I’m pretty sure nobody does. The shaven area of the skin feels weirdly itchy, dry, and almost like it’s going to tear apart. So, what do you do? You use some aftershave and balm after, right?
After propagation, your cuttings are also in a vulnerable state. So, why not give them some attention?
Hydrate your newly planted lavender cuttings, get them adequate sunlight and, if needed, cover them with a plastic bag to retain moisture and humidity so that they have an optimal environment to begin rooting.
4 – Transferring
Once your lavender roots grow big enough, you’ll eventually have to transfer the rooted cuttings to a larger container or perhaps even your backyard for maximal growth.
