Propagation Methods

propagation methods

Students engage in an examination of propagation materials and structures, principles of vegetation propagation, seed propagation procedures, the principles and techniques for grafting, the processes of layering and division and the regeneration techniques used to micropropagate horticultural species. Students demonstrate competence on the variations in plant propagation that are applied in different sectors of the plant propagation trade.
