The Spag.Moss is working well for me too. So far with 32 cuttings I have not had one failure. Seven have already been potted in 1 gal. pots and are nice full leafed trees. However, I discarded the baggies method. I'm always looking for the easiest way. I used some discrded store plastic containers that once held bakery or produce goods, etc. Apparently, Martin D. and I both came up with the same idea unknown to each other. I placed the cuttings and SM in these, stacked them up in a corner of the room out of the way that is normal temp during the day and cooler at night for sleeping and waited. In a week or so I'd take a look through the containers without opening to see if there were roots
Some root very fast. I prefer to get them out at the first sign of roots or even initials. I then pot them in clear plastic cups in a potting mix with some extra perlite and a little SM around these new roots so I don't break them. In my experiance, these roots in SM were very brittle and if left in the SM containers too long they became tangled and easy to break off.

For me the advantages were: No MOLD, no looking for a place to put the baggies, (on top of my fridg? always in the way),no opening/airing the baggies. no looking for a warm spot or worrying about humidity.

Your idea of putting the rooted ruttings in peat pots sounds like a good idea too. It sounds like another way to cut out another step in the process. I don't have a Greenhouse or a special workshop so I'm always looking for the easiest process.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Do you cover the containers to keep humidity up?

Tom,
I don't quite know what you mean? These reused containers, mostly those that cake or cookies came in, have attached lids. I don't cover the closed containers if that's what you mean.
