One cut across the middle of the the vein making sure it only penetrates half way through.Thanks for your patience with some of the other members Woo. Just for clarification in case I missed something, are the cuts suppose to be perpendicular to the vein? Also is it 1 cut per vein?
whatever does the job my friend without hindering the shoots from appearing.What do you think about the net pot bottoms for weight ?
Does my nationality make a difference? yes I'm English.Are you English?
The earliest results I have had was a shoot appearing in 10 days with the other four following daily, so as I said previously be patient! Once the shoots have developed they need to be transplanted quickly to avoid root tangle, unless you are happy to train the five shoots as one plant. Don't transplant any shoots till they have all appeared, unless too much time has elapsed between appearances ie. 2 days between shoot 3 and 4.You say all looks good.
Then we shall take care of them and see.
I'd post a pic but, there is nothing new to see.
whhhhaaat thats even faster than my regular cuttings root...wowThe earliest results I have had was a shoot appearing in 10 days with the other four following daily, so as I said previously be patient!

Thanks for coming back and chiming in Woo... ignore the naysayers, there are a few of us around who are willing to try something new.yes looks good , the only difference is I personally weight the leaves down with chicken wire to keep the leaves pressed aginst the soil.
For the non-believers out there who cant possibly believe the earth is round,the new shoots appear directly above the cut sites of the veins. Someone made a silly comment about leaves not having genetic makeup to grow into plants -WRONG! This method is also nothing like tissue culture it is a simple AVP method(artificial vegetative process) and has been used in my area for years. There are several methods and this is just the most successful one that I have shared.
You snap at me like that and I apologize...and you have nothing to say?Thanks for coming back and chiming in Woo... ignore the naysayers, there are a few of us around who are willing to try something new.
My motto in life is 'try something once, if you don't like it, don't do it again". BTW, I'm a Brit too!
