1. The process by which growers increase their supply of a type of plant is called artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water . 2. Propagation which does not involve flowers, seeds or sexual reproduction is called artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water propagation. 3. Some methods of vegetative propagation make use of propagation structures formed artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water by the plant. 4. Natural methods include using food storage organs such as artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water and artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water and making use of plantlets. A artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water is a miniature plant attached to a artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water plant. Plantlets are found at the ends of artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water (horizontal stems) and at the edges of some plants’ leaves. Others take the form of side shoots called artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water formed at the base of the parent plant. 5. Some methods of vegetative propagation can be used to increase the supply of the plant by artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water means. Plants are often propagated by taking artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water . When a artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water cutting is taken, the stem is normally cut just below the artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water because the node is a point of growth. It will respond to the cut (wound) by developing artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water . Some plants can be propagated using artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water cuttings. 6. The development of roots by a cutting is often promoted by applying a chemical called artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water powder to the cut surface. 7. A stem cutting with many leaves may lose too much water and die before its roots develop. To prevent this happening, most of its artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water are removed or it is given conditions with an increased level of artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water . This can be done by enclosing it in a artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water bag or by putting it in a artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water propagator. 8. Plants can also be propagated artificially by artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water . This means pegging the stem down in the soil until roots form at the nodes. Sometimes the stem is artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water , part the way through, below a node before being artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water down. 9. An advantage of layering is that it can be used with plants that are artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water or impossible to propagate from cuttings. 10. Supplying the plants being propagated with artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water may be of advantage if it leads to artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water growth and/or prevents artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water damage. However these benfits have to be balanced against the possible disadvantages. These include wilting of plants (caused by high artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water loss in warm conditions), rapid spread of artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water and high artificial bulbs cut cuttings difficult disease energy faster frost heat humidity layering leaf leaves mist naturally node offsets parent pegged plantlet plastic propagation rooting roots runners stem tubers vegetative water costs.
