Newly rooted

17 years ago

I have a newly rooted cutting with one leaf and others starting, just put in a 1 gal pot. My question is do I need to wait any length of time to leave it outside as long as the weather is 70+ and 60+ at night? We are having a lot of rainy days/nights these past two weeks with no sotp in sight. Currently, I still have it inside under a grow light. Thanks.

A seedling can handle being wet but it is not so good to be wet all the time. It is better to have it drier at night as the temps drop. Wet at this time for several days can encourage a fungi. You may want to put it out for a few hours in the late morning and then increase as the weather improves.

But since this is a rooted cutting, it should be okay?

Yes. Sorry I thought you had a seedling. A rooted cutting is like a regular plant after about two weeks. Bill
