Salvia cutting

Salvia divinorum (ska maria pastora) was discovered by the Mazatec Indians. The shamans of the Mazatec tribe used this holy medicine to induce a trance. In this trance they could travel through the unconsciousness of the patient to find the source of a disease.

It’s very difficult (almost impossible) to grow Salvia from seeds, so if you want to cultivate your own Salvia plant you have to start with a cutting. The cuttings we offer are shipped in strong, plastic tubes. The roots of the cutting are placed in agar media within the tube. This agar media contains all the needed nutrients.

Wasson & Hofmann strain.

Due to problems with our regular suppliers, our Salvia cuttings are out of stock for an indefinite time.

Salvia growing instructions

This Salvia cutting needs a larger growing habitat than the tube it is delivered in. So after receiving this cutting you have to replant it directly. For this you need a jar, a transparent plastic bag (a zip bag works well) and some soil.

Take the cutting from the tube and remove the agar (gel) completely from the roots with somewhat warm water.

Remove the lower leaves as well.

Put the cutting with the roots into the soil, and water lightly.

Then put the plastic bag over the container to increase humidity. Tighten the bag with a rubber band and place the plant in a warm (20 ° C) and light place, but not in direct sunlight! The best way to keep it moist is to remove the bag once every 3-4 days and spray the plant. After about one week you will notice new growth.

After three weeks the plant is growing well. Now you can choose to keep the plant in a moist environment ("humidity tent") or to slowly harden the plant into 'living room' conditions. This can be done by punching 1 or 2 holes in the bag each day. This way you gradually bring down the humidity. When black edges appear on the leaves this is often due to a (too) low humidity. In the beginning the new growth is often thin. By topping the plant a stronger and bushier plant can be obtained.

“Plant lasted about a week then died.

I haven´t got a green thumb though. it was probably my fault.”

“I received the plant a few days ago and to be honest it looked like it was going to die the moment I took it out of the glass tube. However after planting and giving it some water the plant got a boost and now it looks beautiful and healthy.
A real top product from azarius, get one of these and spread more magic in your everyday life.
One downside though is that there is no plastic bag in the package so you have to provide your own.
The rating system should be ten stars, because I would give it a 9/10!”
