Redcurrant Cuttings

In the autumn, when the plants are boing pruned take off some woody shoots that are about 12 inches long. Clean them up removing any leaves, except for the top 4 inches, and dip the bottoms in rooting compound.
Make a slit in the soil with the spade and insert the cuttings with just the top bits showing. In the spring they should begin to make new growth and later in the year you can move them to their final positions.
