Q.Take Cuttings of Camellias in Oct. For Rooting
What would be the best procedure in rooting camellias in Oct. ? Is there an advantage in chilling cuttings in fridge for a period of time before inserting them in media?

Typically, this time of year, there is very little softwood on plants, so you would need to look at rooting hardwood cuttings. This article explains how to do this: http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/hil/hil-8702.html
You should not chill the cuttings before rooting.
