What’s GNick55 up too

Do you add any peroxide to the water the cuts sit in?

When I came here 4 odd years ago I was getting 5-6 cuts out of 10 growing by just sticking them in the dirt and keeping the soil damp......I learned a few new methods and I got down to about 2 out of 10 growing, I built a bubbler and I got 6 out of 10....MY last batch I got 9 out of 9 by sticking them in the dirt dipped in clonex.......

I' try to do it quick by dropping them in water asap after cutting and keeping them there until I clean up the bottom and dip in Clonex........I was led to believe doing it quickly was to prevent air in the stalk and doing the cleaning up under water was ideal......

.I like your idea of letting it sit for a while so any hydraulic movement in the stalk would suck water not air....like a break line not wanting an air bubble

i’m only saying that because the last few times i’ve done it and last time, the branches that i broke i let sit for 2 days in water and those clones were growing new leaves in just a couple days after planting as i go from cup of water to the medium they will be growing in (after preparing the clone and using rooting powder)
no peroxide… just my tap water..

Ya it makes sense to me that if in a working hydraulic system with it drawing fluid up a stalk after being cut the hydraulic's are still working and I can see it sucking air in.......

once its sucked up its needs ( in a cup of water ) and slows its hydraulic draw of fluid, dealing with it then would be better for the new cut. Less chance of sucking air and it should have sucked up enough to have a full tank prepping it for new growth.....

I learned that by tossing cuttings in the birdbath. Planted them in solo cups a couple days later and voila!

Is there a story to go with that fan? I haven't seen one like that in a long time.
