A bunch of cuttings

Lazy does it. On January 21st, I stuck a bunch of I-258 cuttings in suitable medium, placed the tray under the sink, and neglected them for a couple of weeks. They rooted.
To be perfectly honest, I sprinkled Myco and root hormone powder on top of the medium and barely mixed them in.
Notice the cuttings that likely rooted are green!
Also, I started three I-258 fig-pops, three DTE figs-pops, and one WM#1 in a cup.
Three out of three I-258 rooted.
Two out of three DTE rooted.
One WM#1 seems to be living happily.

@MFJFIGS that's just about perfect. I never get results like that. Congratulations on such a perfect result.

This is very true, and they do great when you just let them do their thing. I do look in on my cuttings a few times a day, and I’m probably not the only one who is obsessed with watching them grow and change. I may have an issue, but it’s ok. 😁

It's difficult not to look at them but I've learned to keep my hands off. Too many times I've killed them with love
 
@MFJFIGS it's not just that you rooted them so fast, it's the type of roots that they formed. It looks like they're well on their way to forming a network of roots that will hold the soil when removed from the container. To safely up pot we basically need to have root bound containers. That's what my eyes are seening, thick healthy roots. Congratulations.
