Good luck! I hope it will root for you.

I'm crossing my fingers for you!

Thanks! I will keep everyone updated!

A warming pad to encourage roots faster, 95% humidity to minimize moisture loss, light to help that stem photosynthesize, and air movement to prevent mold and fungi. All in just the right quantities, and consistently. Piece of cake, right? :-)

The stem will either go dry pretty quickly (keep it in as if it's alive for weeks, because it just might be), or it will remain green(ish) for a while, with hopefully some tiny sickly starter leaves eventually (not soon), followed by progressively better leaves.

My success rate with leafless cuttings has been exactly 0%, but I hear it can be done, and I wish you luck.

Thanks, greentoe!
