Step 4: Place the Cuttings in Water
Fill a glass or vase with 2–3 inches of distilled or filtered water. Place the rosemary cuttings in the container, ensuring that the cut ends are submerged. Change the water every few days to keep it fresh and prevent bacterial growth.
Step 5: Maintain Humidity
Create a humid environment by covering the glass or vase with a plastic bag or plastic wrap. Secure it with a rubber band or twine. This helps prevent moisture loss and encourages root formation.
Step 6: Provide Adequate Light
Place the container in a location that receives bright, indirect sunlight. If natural light is insufficient, use grow lights. Avoid exposing the cuttings to intense, direct sunlight, as it may cause them to dry out.
Step 7: Monitor and Wait
Check the water level regularly and ensure that the cut ends remain submerged. Roots should begin to develop within 2–6 weeks. Once the roots are about 2–3 inches (5–7 cm) long, the cuttings are ready for transplanting.
