The two kiwi I purchased (one male, one female) had
roots that we snarled in the container. The seemed to do ok this 1st year
but I thought that I'd try to propagate from cuttings as I've heard stories
about plants with snarled roots not lasting beyond a few years. I bundled
the cuttings into two by sex and put one each in a pot surrounded with peat
moss. I put these pots in an old tire packed with leaves and put that on
the north side of my shed for the winter. In the spring I plan to put a
few of these cutting in several pots with one or two nodes above the surface
after dipping the bottom node in a rooting hormone. This will be my 1st
attempt at this. Does it make sense? Any suggestions?
