Title: Demonstrate plant propagation.
Course: Horticulture Science (18052-I) > Section: Investigating the Horticulture Industry

Demonstration could include

- propagating seeds
- manipulating environmental conditions for the germination of seeds
- propagating stems and leaves
- manipulating environmental conditions required for root cuttings
- propagating via layering and division
- propagating via grafting and budding
- propagating softwood, semi-hardwood, and hardwood cuttings
- propagating by separation
- propagating by division.

Process/Skill Questions:

- Why do certain asexual propagation methods not apply to all plants?
- What is the difference between division and separation?
- When should seedlings be transplanted into larger containers?
- How does the type of plant affect the method of propagation used?
- What are plant growth regulators, and how are they used in plant propagation?
- What are careers related to micropropagation and/or tissue culture?
