Try snipping a lobe off or something.. Alot of ppl have accomplished that, but I've seen none go further with all the opportunity in the world.. Those are pretty nice roots, an all around good candidate to try to facilitate nodes without killing it..
All cases I've seen since the overgrow days though don't progress without some sort of attempt to stimulate undifferentiation up top..

I did this and all i got was a rooted leaf. maybe i did it wrong?
Lets see some results.

stays relevant.
There will be no results. Woomeister isnt posting "results" because he did not get any. A LEAF is not going to produce new nodes, and without a node already there to grow from, it cannot grow any further.
This is the reason we clone branches, with nodes- and not just the leaves. Nodes will produce leaves, and additional nodes to grow from. Leaves cannot produce additional leaves, or new nodes.

don't get me wrong a rooted leaf is cool.....Just not a giant cola.

- As the concentration of cytokinin accumulates in the callus, it stimulates shoot formation. The shoots then can grow up. In the end you have a shoot with roots...a whole plant!

Holy shit I have been spraying mine with sea weed extract (full of cytokinin) and today it is covered up with shoots.......+ rep to you Woomeister .

Well if rooted fan leaves dont grow nodes it would still be cool to maybe continue to grow the fan leaf as big as possible. Would the fan leaf continue to grow bigger?
Im curious cuz id like to make a holloween costume with fan leaves and possibly some camping gear like sleeping bags and such.

The *ONLY* way you're getting anything from a fan leaf clone without nodes is to nick the outer cell walls of the stem after rooting and literally DRENCHING it with hormones to force cell deviation and force the cells that form at nodes to be produced.
Very time consuming, and VERY COSTLY AND DIFFICULT to maintain, with an absolutely dismal percentage rate of success. The hormone alone to force cell deviation costs over $100 per 50mL. The pot growers at Oxford, MS tried that and decided it's not feasible and too costly.
Yes, it can be done. Without a major lab and some major money, your chance of success is pretty much ZERO.

Thanks for tossing in some educated negativity.. Its a nice change..
IMO though, if you have a rooted fan leaf go ahead and experiment.. Not like its much good for anything else..

ya...almost anything can be done. its just how much money you have to do it. i'm sure you could turn a pot plant into a fruit bearing plant by fucking with its dna..... how bad ass would that be
