Please post some updates on your cuttings. Thanks! :flowers:/>

Here are two of the last cuttings from the plant - no leaves at all.

Hi lucas,

If the leaves are green, they are doing fine. They will take 2 weeks in very bright light and 3-4 weeks in bright shade.

Hi Cindy, mine doing very well, I just repot them today, the 1st pot you passed to me 2 weeks ago double it size already, and I am lucky to have the pot of the shorter cuttings but the tips, they have new growth just within 1 week, will take a photo tommorrow for update, passed out the last cup of cuttings today, one stem still green with one a bit brown, I remember the one I hand over to Lucas has a small side shoot on one of the cutting on the top node.

Can water some fertilizer like seedweed extract or just like other CP, no fertilizer at all?

Mine have morning sun on them.

Cindy, did you purposely cut off all the leaves?

The leaves were all brown while on the plant so when I took the cuttings, I trimmed them off. The withered leaves kinda get tangled up. :lol:/>

Hi miico,

In you first picture, the branches are pointing downwards, i.e., inverted Y shape. Is that the correct orientation? I have seen images online, they seem to be Y shape.

Thanks Cindy. Using handphone so focus bit stubborn.
I wanna find a nice black backdrop then my pictures can be more like yours. Perhaps help the phone to focus on only the plant.

Btw, just checked this morning, 3 of the 4 cuttings have new leaf. This is really exciting as from other posts, can see these fellas can grow big.

Abby, you should click on the photo icon, not the link icon (which is on the right of the smilies icon). So your photo in html should look like the following:

{img}https://fbcdn-sphoto...840_n.jpg{/img} - I changed the brackets otherwise the photo itself will appear

Btw, it that the first cutting I passed to you in the red pot? It's growing great! :wub:/>

Hi miico,

The leaves are downwards pointing for the portion of the stem closer to the ground. :flowers:/>

Fix the focus and try moving your handphone backwards/forwards until the cuttings can become sharp. ;)/>

Me no Cindy, but my opinion, if using those LFS from bales, i soak them overnight to get them full hydrated. if it's the compressed LFS from talos, i leave them for 10hr[they hydrate better] before using.
