For some of us with a bad case of cabin fever starting our dahlias and taking cuttings provide a nice relief for our afflication. What I plan to do it take this from the begining and right up to planting out. I hope to have pictures of all steps and would hope you would have comments or suggestions as to how you do it. So lets get started.
1. First we need a table in a warm room with lights close to the table top.
2. A heat pad is a good investment to move things along. Remember at this point heat is the most important part of the process.
3. Plastic tray with small holes in bottom fill with good grade soilless mix. Fill about 2/3 of the way and place on heating pads under the lights. See picture
