cutting growing with no roots

I have cutting growing leaves with no signs of roots. Any hope for these?

Try to keep them in the dark to discourage top growth while the roots catch up. Also, some members say that a weak solution of Miracle Gro (half normal strength) applied on the leaves will encourage root formation. You might try that. But the biggest thing is to wait.

If you have leaves you want the leaves to get lots of light so they make food for the plant.   Keep the bottom part warm and in the dark.

yeah.. don't put it in the dark. "plant" it in plastic cup, and keep moisture on the top so the leaves will not die out. make sure to give good lights to the leave so they can fuel energy in root formation. very weak fertilizer might help.. have been seeing weak fertilizer helping root and leave formation.

Its best not to use fertilizer with urea as the nitrogen source. Hydro solutions do not have urea in them.
