=============================================
The Monterey Pine (pinus radiata) are ordinarily propagated from seed.
The pinus radiata have no dormany conditions and can be planted directly.
However if your seeds have been stored for some period then they might
require cold storage before planting (1-3 months @ 32-40F).
Pine cuttings are difficult to root.
HAS ANY ONE TRIED:
Take cuttings from young trees in the winter from low growing lateral
shoots.
Wound the cuttings.
Use IBA Water Soluble Salts at 4000 ppm IBA; dissolve in WATER.
Propagation under mist.
For media use peat, radiaca litter and redwood sawdust (1:1:1).
