Rooting by Stem Cutting Catnip Progress

In a previous post, I've explained how to growing catnip plants as a treatment for cats.
And also explain how to reproduce the plant catnip rooting by stem cutting.
It has been 2 weeks to expand catnip, and the result is very satisfying.
The roots have started to grow lush on the steem that have been cut and attached to rookwol. In the past 2 weeks, the roots were soaked with water to keep the moisture in rookwol as planting media.

Water is also monitored so as not to dry.
Quite tricky to grow to root by stem cutting as the plant is very difficult to adapt to the rays of the sun.
My area is experiencing very hot weather, and rain when the night comes.
While these plants require direct sunlight, but because the sunlight is too hot to make the leaves wither.

The way I do it when a day is to put all the seeds catnip to a more shade until late afternoon. Seeds sowing this only I'm giving rays of the sun from the hours of 7-11 am. Then spray with water until the leaves begin to inflate the back.

Next, I put all the seeds into a hydroponic system that has been prepared. One by one I put into the hole/ net pot. A bit sore but very pleasant because it is the root that grows very dense.

I use hydroponics 80 holes, with a system NFT (nutrient film technique), because it is very helpful and easy so no need to check the nutrients every day. Using system nft very useful if you have a lot of hydroponics.

To Nutrient AB Mix, I use 1300ppm, because this is the dose that is very fitting to the plant catnip. Make sure the channel hydroponics system does not leak and clean.
And always I never use pesticides to keep the quality of the organic there on catnip, and certainly very safe for the pet cat.

I hope this plant grows quickly because not wait to harvest them and can be resold. Because catnip is organic and must be beneficial for a pet cat.

See you in the next one..
