Yeah…WM#1 has been weird for me this year….lots of roots but no leaves on three cuttings all from same mother….patiently waiting.

I recommend using the saved search feature on FigBid. First search for it, then press the "save search" button.

I can only send you a WM#1 air layer later in the season. I have an UNK that is similar to LSU Tiger if you are interested.

I literally had these two for cuttings in my fridge for weeks and I just recently gave them away to someone this week. sorry!

I *have* an extra WM#1, but it's in a 7 gallon pot so that might not be very cost effective to ship...I could try setting an air layer when it's had a little longer to get some growth on it! Ive never done that, but I'd never grafted til last week either and I didn't let that stop me.

I've got both of these Cuttings.

I can vouch for @gregg.wieder as he's new to the forum but not to the Austin area fig community... But please do your own due diligence.

I decided to recut and stick the last two in a fig pop. I’m a little wary though because they have been trying to root since December. But hey, stranger things have happened

Good luck. If they don’t root, they’ll be plenty of cuttings this winter. Less trees means more care for the ones you already have.

I got one that’s in a hybrid fig pop that just now swole up a bud. It’s had roots since Dec.

December?! How did you manage to not pull it and feed the stick to the dumpster?! I was just inquiring about my WM#1 thick cutting having a bunch of roots and still no sign of life on top after 30 days in the dirt - where do I purchase some of this patience?

Deal with enough cuttings and it’ll come to some degree. I haven’t done a ton of them, but already seen cuttings sit there for months and not root/rot, seen top growth a couple months after rooting, seen cuttings root then stall for idk how long. Every cutting/tree has its own time.

So any update on the rooting of the cuttings?

 

[BruceB]

Cuttings have a personality of their own. Of the ones I did this winter, Black Zadar, Izbat an Naj, C's Red, Ischia Black AD, and Figoin did well. Pingo de Mel and Irainian Candy did not so well. Barbilone and DesTres Esplets are filing charges against me for figocide. PDM, IC, DTE, and Barbie got the old Itailian method of just jamming them in the dirt and survival of the fittest. PDM and IC have the tiniest of bud break showing. They all got the same exact care for rooting. Maybe I will do better next year?
