Thanks, vostok. Interesting subtitutes for rooting hormone. Actually have some of that on hand already. The honey is surprising, but find the willow tree tea particularly interesting.
We used some long fresh cut logs of Australian willow trees as flower bed borders once. After just laying on the surface of the dirt for a couple of days I was surprised to find a series of 4 or 5" shoots rising along the highest point on the log about 6 inches in between. Amazed at how it was sprouting I picked it up to check it out and pulled out a series of roots about 6 inches long and also about 6 inches apart but staggered with the sprouts above. Was before the days of cell phone cameras, but now wish I would have rounded up a camera and taken photos.
Willows must have some awesome hormones at work inside them. Will have to do some googling and see what is involved in making the tea.
