    it goes off. People took cuttings before rooting hormone was invented. 

    It makes no difference to my success rate, most of them die whatever I do or don't useimage

    I am with Nut on this one.

    I never use rooting powder, as I believe it can actually make things worse, as you can get blobs of powder on the cutting, making it less likely to root.

    There are no absolutes in gardening.

    I have reasonable success, without using rooting powder. I choose not to use it, because that is what many of the "experts" said, when I read about their methods.
