Don Armstrong, Autauga County Master Gardener, showed us propagation techniques for dividing plants and rooting cuttings. His choice of potting medium is 3 parts wood chips to 1 part Pro-Mix plus a little time-release fertilizer.  Don usually takes six inch cuttings, removes most leaves. scrapes the stem, dips in rooting hormone and places 2 to 3 nodes into the potting mix. He suggests putting 10 to 12 six inch cuttings in gallon pots. These pots are placed in the shade until rooted and then separated into individual pots and moved to partial shade. As a special bonus Don shared dozens of plants he has propagated: airplane plants, amaryllis, ivy, English dogwood, forsythia. iris, blueberries and much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We congratulate Charla Doucet and Kaylee Doucet on completing their certification requirements and presented badges and certificates to this mother\/daughter duo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD.jpeg\" alt=\"Master gardeners getting certificates\" class=\"wp-image-18670\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD-275x275.jpeg 275w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD-350x350.jpeg 350w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/71056446-6657-46C9-BFF5-52FE18BE29CD-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18668\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D-275x275.jpeg 275w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D-350x350.jpeg 350w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/E2175669-F326-4351-B917-14407B8F514D-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18667\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F-275x275.jpeg 275w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F-350x350.jpeg 350w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/716B8FE8-5B8D-4CF7-ADFD-C50E33CBC57F-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18669\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89-150x150.jpeg 150w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89-275x275.jpeg 275w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89-350x350.jpeg 350w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2019\/09\/DD87790D-AA19-4F03-BE24-2A6E88049F89-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sex in the Garden, Propagation of Course! was the topic for our September meeting.
