Jade Cutting advice

16 years ago

I've been given a cutting of a crassula (ovata, i assume), and I'm looking for some advice on how to proceed with it.

{{gwi:542097}}

as you can see, there's two smaller branches on the cutting.

one of the side branches has what looks like a root already.

there's also these brown bumps on the side of the main branch.

{{gwi:542103}}
here's a (very bad) shot of the cut end. It's been cut for quite a while, it seems, as it's all callused over.

There are several leaves on it, as you can see, and several of them are shrivelling (as they will, with no roots to get water through), but the newest growth is still very strong looking.

What should I do with this? Cut the entire thing in half and have two cuttings to try to grow? Cut the branches off and go that way? Do it as is?

Your advice would be appreciated. :D
