Commence by gathering robust lemon tree cuttings. Opt for branches free from diseases or pests, measuring approximately 6-8 inches in length. Employ a sharp knife or scissors to create clean cuts at a 45-degree angle.
Step 2: Prepare the Aloe Vera and Turmeric
Aloe vera plays a pivotal role in this propagation process. Delicately slice open an aloe vera leaf lengthwise to unveil the nurturing gel within. This gel contains natural rooting hormones that invigorate root development in your lemon cuttings. Additionally, prepare a portion of turmeric powder in a small receptacle. Turmeric’s antifungal and antibacterial qualities will act as a protective shield for your cuttings.
Step 3: Apply Aloe Vera Gel and Turmeric
With care, apply the aloe vera gel to the lower section of your lemon cuttings. This gel not only stimulates root growth but also forms a safeguard against potential infections. Following the application of aloe vera gel, lightly sprinkle your cuttings with a dash of turmeric powder to harness its antifungal and antibacterial attributes. Ensure complete coverage for maximum effectiveness.
Step 4: Allow the Gel and Turmeric to Set
Allow some time for the aloe vera gel and turmeric-coated cuttings to set. This brief waiting period permits the gel to dry and the turmeric to create a protective shield around your cuttings.
