In medical texts, you will often encounter „vegetativ“ (autonomic) in the phrases „vegetatives Nervensystem“ (autonomic nervous system), „vegetative Störungen“ (autonomic disorders), and „vegetative Symptome“ (autonomic symptoms).

In botany, „vegetativ“ (vegetative) often appears directly with „sich vermehren“ (to reproduce) or „vermehren“ (to propagate). „Durch“ (by / through) followed by the accusative can be used to specify how propagation occurs, for example through runners or cuttings.

The phrase „vegetatives Wachstum“ (vegetative growth) refers to the growth of roots, stems, and leaves in plants. So pay attention to the noun it is used with: „Wachstum“ (growth) indicates the plant’s development here, while „Vermehrung“ (propagation) refers to the production of additional plants.

The researchers measure vegetative growth based on the number and size of the leaves.
