Abstract
A method for producing, without the help of a substrate, a plurality of rooted cuttings includes inserting at least one unrooted cutting into pockets arranged successively in a longitudinal direction of a strip element. Each pocket has an opening at a top side facing a transverse direction and a bottom side that is at least partially closed. The strip element is formed at least in part of biodegradable material having a liquid retaining capacity of at least about 100 g liquid per 100 g of biodegradable material dry weight. The strip element has first and second wall-forming members fixed to each other in a spacer area adjacent each pocket and arranged to at least partly overlap in the longitudinal direction and to not fully overlap in the transverse direction. The first wall-forming member extends past the second wall-forming member in the transverse direction at the top side of each pocket.
