00:00 see the growing medium is different for a cutting as opposed to a seed. So this

00:06 bench is full which is what we want to see. We have no more room to propagate

00:11 anything else. We have automatic watering and heating and

00:17 when this is ready to come out of this mix we would probably look under here

00:24 we're looking for roots and when we can see roots coming through under there

00:29 we'd probably have a little bit of a poke around and hope to see some roots.

00:35 These are all a bit young.

00:38 It's actually quite a lovely garden at the lodge where they make heaps of the

00:54 veggies and herbs and things that are all grown there. It's an amazing treat to see.

01:02 Look, gardens are just, you know, I love the way the young folk actually say we should get back to doing things the old-fashioned way.

01:10 And we think, you know what, I grew up on a farm where if it wasn't in the garden

01:31 Okay, now you're going to dibble Prime Minister.

01:44 You're going to make a nice hole in that pot and then hand it on to the Minister.

01:50 Oh, there we go. Country girl, she just stuck her finger in that pot.

01:54 As you do. And then put it in there. That's it.

01:58 Now Sue Ellen, wherever she is, the first thing she taught me is roots have memories.

02:03 So however you put that root in there is how the plant's going to grow.

02:07 So if you didn't do that successfully... I did it successfully and I'm not allowing you to check.

02:14 I'm not allowing you to check.
