Rooting Cuttings?

Can I root cuttings at this time of year.  IOW, can I snip and put the cutting in a potting medium and likely have success if I keep it moist?

If so, What would be a recommended length?  How deep to bury the cutting?  Strip leaves?  If so, some or all?

Obviously a newbie :)

Thanks,  Bill

Thank you for that.  Very helpful.

i noticed you are in zone 9b which means your growing season is long. There is plenty of time for you to set an airlayer and get good roots this season.

Thanks.. I have three going right now.  I've never done it before.  I did the water bottle filled with potting soil.. probably should have added s.moss but didn't have any. Also, I did not remove the bark from the branch I am trying this with.. so, I don't know how it will turn out.

Newbie, living n learning.
