I don't generally use any hormone powder for the relatively small number
of cuttings I do, as it goes off and I end up throwing most away and
regretting the purchase. I wondered if anyone here had tried the vit C
method and if you'd recommend it to increase 'strike' rate?
I've also heard of using soluble Aspirin.
That's for when the whole lot fail and you get a headache! :-)
