When it comes to propagation, scaling is the process of increasing or decreasing the size of your plantings. This can be done for a number of reasons, such as wanting to fill in gaps in your garden or needing to reduce the size of your plants to better fit a new space. No matter what your reason for scaling, it's important to know how to do it properly so that your plants don't suffer any shock or damage during the transition.
There are two main methods of scaling: cutting and division. Cutting involves taking a portion of a plant and replanting it elsewhere, while division involves physically separating a plant into two or more parts and replanting each section in a different location. Both methods can be used to increase or decrease the size of your plants, depending on how many sections you end up with at the end.
Scaling can be a bit tricky, so it's always best to start with just one or two plants and see how they do before moving on to scale up (or down). Be sure to water your newly transplanted plants well and give them some time to adjust to their new home before moving on to the next one. With a little patience and care, you'll have no problem getting your scaled-up (or down) propagation project off to a great start!
