Madd_Rez Trying my hand at taking cuttings. Took 8 and placed them in a 70/30 coco perlite mix. 9th is in a cup poked through saran wrap.
Slits on bottom of cup and slit in domes. Always had issues with everyone being droopy within 6 hours of cutting - these have gone 24 and look the same. Very good to see!
Figure I'll try both and see what happens. Will redo whoever works best. Although I do like the idea of keeping the clone in a starter pot over just water. We'll see.

Madd_Rez Day 8 since taking my cuttings. The one simply in the cup is showing off some root nubs! Can't believe it! The other 8 are in sealed cups at 98-100% humidity. Hoping to see some roots in their cups by the end of the week.

Madd_Rez Unfortunately there's not much to report. I ended up taking a 10th cutting right before flipping my donor. I can't call her a Mother in my opinion. However not all is lost - I was nosey and poked into all 8 cups and only 1 had roots, about an inch long. Not sure what happens with the nubs on the on in just water. As he's still green so Is imagine everyone's on maintenance mode. Going to stay patient. Thinking the light was too intense so I e back it down. Well see what happens this week.

Madd_Rez Guessing I didn't have the lighting intensity low enough. Within a few days of doing so, roots started to appear. So far I've got 4 cuttings with roots - which is all I need. These 4 were also the ones in the double cup setups, the cuttings in water have definitely stalled. But, we'll see what they do. Not sure when I'll pot these up...

Madd_Rez It's been a crazy and busy week for these gals! The 8 cuttings that I put in the taped cups all rooted. The 2 in cups of water got a bunch of bumps at the base of the stem but no roots actually.popped. Took the 8 that did root and got them potted into half gal pots for now.
