– A fresh potato, preferably organic – Between 8 and 12 whole, shiny, flawless cloves – A small, flat container – Filtered water – Pure aloe vera gel, with no added alcohol or fragrance – A spray bottle – A well-lit space, away from direct sunlight
Nothing more. No potting soil, no fertilizer, no sophisticated equipment. The strength of nature is more than enough.
How to germinate your cloves
Let's get into practice! Follow these steps one by one:1. Cut a potato slice about 2 to 3 cm thick. 2. Lightly wipe the surface with paper towels. 3. Drive the nails pointing down, spacing them far enough. There is no need to push them too hard. 4. Place the whole thing in the flat container, in a bright room. 5. Spray a mixture of water and a few drops of aloe vera gel daily. In dry periods, repeat the operation morning and evening.
