Vegetative Annual Propagation: Rooting Under HID Lights

Saturday, December 8th, 2007

We are fortunate to have HID lights in our prop houses and, for us, it makes a big difference when our cuttings are rooted under supplemental lighting. We can initiate rooting and get the cuttings off of mist 1 - 3 days sooner when we use supplemental lighting.
Has anyone else seen similar results?
