Has anyone had any luck propagating Feijoa from cuttings? I have one bush in my yard, but every cutting I have tried to root, just does absolutely nothing.

Anyone have some tips?

I would try at different times of the year when temps are above 60 but below 85ish.. scarify and non scarified ... in case there isn't info.. every variety that can be rooted has its trick and optimal period of hormone concentration

AI says spring/summer cuttings (trmlerature window), keep hunid use hormone and expect to take 2-3 months

Im airl layering a citrus which is said to be easy but according to some reads, takes a really long time.. I put a cutting in humidity and soil to see also...

I have a dwarf pineapple guava cross, the leaves are different but it came from the same seedlings but even the larger ones have not flowered yet in a few years

We have a home depot (unknown) variety that fruited well last year for the 1st time after about 5 years. I tried grafting and rooting pineapple guava (simple outdoors in a pot) last year as well without success. Now that fig cuttings are exiting the grow tent, I may have space to try again in a more controlled environment.
 
'Tubers show success in videos. Temperature and humidity seem to be the significant factors. What temperature and humidity are you trying?
 
When I tried last year, temperatures were around 65 Day, 55 night with morning marine layer then drying out throughout the day.
