Place the stripped area in rooting hormone, then put the stripped end into a small pot of damp soilless mix. 2  Wrap the whole pot and cutting in a plastic bag. 3  Tie off the top but make sure the plastic is not touching the cutting at all. 4  Place the pot in a warm spot that gets indirect light. 5  Do not put in full sunlight.
