How to propagate a tomato branch to get another tomato plant!

Hi guys! Today I am going to show you how you can take a broken tomato branch, (or sucker) and turn it into a new plant! Let’s get started!

First you need your branch. Mine is a bit big, but you can definitely use a smaller branch.

Next we need to prepare our branch. To do this, all you need to do is to snip off the lower leaves on your tomato plant. Also, if there are any flowers, gently remove them. This way your branch will focus on making roots instead of making one last batch of flowers.

Once you’re done that, you need to get a container that can hold water and that is big enough for your branch. Fill it up with tap water.

Now, put your branch in your container with water.

Also, as an experiment, I am also going to try propagating some large tomato leaves.

All that’s left to do is to put your branch in a mostly sunny area, (it they are in super intense light, it can shock them) and if your container is clear, cover it’s sides with a paper towel to minimize the amount of sunlight that hits the water. (To much sunlight in the water can encourage algae to grow.

That’s it for today’s post! I hope you enjoyed it! I will be posting updates on the tomato branches! Bye!
