Pawpaw Softwood Propagation Experiment Results

Описание: Pawpaw Softwood Propagation Experiment Results shows the results I had with my 4-month long experiments with various methods of softwood propagation using a mist system with pawpaw cuttings taken in July of 2024.

While we did not have any actually root out, we did have 70% or more that still had green cambium wood meaning they are still alive. We took the live cuttings and transitioned them to hardwood tests and will overwinter them with hopes that they leaf out in spring and possibly root out. We will post another update in the summer of 2025 with the results.
