Step 3: Rooting Hormones (optional) Dip the cut end in rooting hormone to encourage root growth. Step 4: Plant in Soil Plant the cutting in a pot with well-draining soil. Water thoroughly, then cover the cutting with a plastic bag or plastic tent to create a moist environment. Step 5: Care Place the pot in a warm, bright place but avoid direct sunlight.
