I hope you're not joking because I'm about to try this fancy method #1.Cloning. Wow, this is one of those areas where everyone has a special trick... In my unqualified opinion, which absolutely nobody should take as advice or statement of fact, it's all bullsh*t. It's is without a doubt the number-one over-f*cked-with aspect of growing.
I've been taking clones for nearly 30 years, and after all that time I have settled on two techniques that have, over time, out performed all other approaches in both time to root and overall success rate.
My first, wildly complicated but oh-so-effective procedure, is as follows:
1. take cutting from plant.
2. plant cutting in coco.
3. keep warm and wet.
I literally just jab the cutting into a solo cup of coco. No hormones, no specialized "proper angles", scraping or rooting compounds. Usually takes about a week to see roots coming out of the drain hole in the cup.
My second technique is even more involved. In fact it is so complicated that I only use it in the rare case that the plant will not be grown in coco. I know this is complicated, but try to follow:
1. take cutting from plant.
2. place cutting in tap water
3. wait.
Keep the cut end from drying out, and the plant will do the rest. No magic potion needed.

Works and it’s how we do it in fijiAloha Farm, I'm cruising in Maui visiting some farmer friends here on island. I learned an amazing cloning tip. All the island boys are using Aloe gel from the aloe vera plant to roots cutting and are getting roots on everything. They slice the aloe and just dip into gel inside the stem. If you can't grow aloe or you can buy aloe gel at natural food store. I want wait to try, I may add some microbes into gel and experiment. I'll keep updated
In California atm, have grows here and in fiji, split my time across the pacific brother! Bula vinakaOh Brah, you stay in Fiji. I love it there, been going Tonga past few year in Vavau...
