Rose plant propagation using potatoes experiment
There are a large number of youtube videos on propagating rose plants using potatoes
In most videos, the rose plants are shown as being propagated easily
So to check whether the methods were effective, 5 roses were purchased from the local rose seller.
They were inserted in a potato and put in a small pot as shown in the experiment,watered daily.
After 3 days, three of rose stems have become black, and are not likely to propagate.
The rose seller may have given stale roses, and crows are pecking at the pot
More updates on this experiment will be provided after a week.
So though the youtube videos make it look easy, it is not very easy to propagate plants using potatoes or other material.
