Note to self:

Don't root two cuttings in the same cup!!! HAHA...
Took me a min to untangle them but surprised how nicely they rooted. These were extra small pieces that I trimmed off of longer cutting and couldn't just toss them away so I just threw them in a cup not really expecting much. Started rooting 10/30...

Oh boy! I did that for several of my cuttings. In fact, most of my cuttings are 4 in one container of petite. I should have thought ahead but I didn't have enough empty containers on hand. Was it particularly hard to separate them without damaging the roots?

I think I broke off a small root, it wasn't too bad but I think it had to do with rooting in coco coir, couple shakes and most of it falls off. I personally have never tried rooting in perlite. I'll try a couple this spring just to compare.

Good job Simon, you are a natural my brother :)

Strong work.  If you have to untangle roots submerging them in warm water and gently wiggling the plants as you pull them apart with minimal force works well.

Aaron, let's see how natural I do with the next stage, HA...
Bob, the initial taking out and tugging at them and realizing this could be bad was the worst but like I said, after a couple shakes they came apart pretty easily. I'm hoping to have the same luck with the CH cuttings I got from you...
