How should I trim my stem plants?
For some reason this just popped in my head. When you go and get a bunch on roses, the stems are cut at an angle. I can only assume that is to increase the surface area of the stem at the point of which it will consume water, therefore allowing the flower to uptake more water correct? If this is true, then should I cut my stem plants in the same manner before I replant them in the substrate? This would allow them to uptake more nutrients from the substrate before the roots grow, correct?
