... a little side note about Parafilm
These are my initial findings and I hope to do more investigating this spring.
I have tried using it to wrap dormant cuttings for rooting. I have had improved success using it with more difficult rooting plants, but wrapping whole cuttings with "buddy tape" can be expensive. You can get parafilm from different scientific supply companies of the net for alot cheaper. They also come in much larger widths. I have notice this parafilm is a cheaper quality as well (for our needs). It will crack breakdown much quicker than buddy tape (though for rooting you may not need it to last very long).
Anyone else use parafilm for rooting and care to add their knowledge?
