So what is better rooting cuttings under cover (in this case a polytunel) or in the open?
Compare Auguste Louise......
Solaris....
And Glenora.... All rooted under cover.
With these Regent cuttings rooted outside.
The indoor cuttings are so much further forward. So much so a number of them may come into bearing a year or two earlier than outdoor rooted ones.
However I wouldn't recommend trying to root cuttings in pots because I tried that last year with only limited success. Better to plant them in the ground for rooting.
