About Tom Alonzo
Expertise
I have been growing plants from seeds for at least 20 years. I have grown literally hundreds of different kinds of vegetables, trees, shrubs, annuals, perennials, tropicals, some cacti, water plants, iris, rose, lilies, cannas, etc. I enjoy starting from seed.
Experience
I've been growing my own seeds for 20 years with indoor propagation equipment I built myself. I am also an Allexperts volunteer on the perennial forum. I have completed the Master Gardener course through the Kansas State University Extension. I have experience with a wide variety of seeds and I have also read through Norm Deno's books on seed germination.

Question
I enjoy propagating plants using stem cuttings. I keep the cuttings in my house. I can't afford to make or buy a greenhouse or cold frame for my cuttings. What would you suggest that I put them in inside my home?
Answer
Hi Frank,
Thanx for your question. Just use a simple shelving unit or one of those mini greenhouses. Use 10X20 black seed flats and wet sand for your growing media. Rooting hormone and heating pads and 40-watt shoplights too. You mentioned a spare bedroom in your last posting. Use that room or the basement. I hope this helps.
Tom
