so i have two cuttings that have like one long root. i don't know if i should put it in cups or wait till more roots come out. I'm afraid that i might break the only root that it has when i go to cup it up.
Personally? I'd wait for more to show, although sometimes that takes time. To cup it, i like to pour media in, get the root level with the bottom of the media, then pour more on top. I've broken quite a few myself, unfortunately.Good luck!
What do you have it in
as media i have 30% perlite and 70% pro mix bx with biofungicide.the cutting is neggronne
i would have put your same mix and cutting straight into the cupand save on double handling and no risk of root brackage.more on the way lol,, i started with 8 figs in the beginning.

Growing Fig cuttings in soil is seriously like Grapes
I got mine on Amazon since no one local had it . It was a little pricey but well worth it . No rot yet (crossing my fingers ).
Amazon is good!
I don't know where you are located but I found mine at a local hydroponics store. Been visiting that place a lot in the past week or so, lots of cool stuff there for cloning :) FYI I once purchased pro-mix on amazon and they sent me a bag that was opened and re-taped shut.. Totally infested with gnats too ;( That definitely was no bueno..
I've heard good things about Pro-Mix... No experience though.
Jamie0507: I'm in Southern California. It's good to know that you found it at a hydroponics store. I like to shop around for a good price so I'll consider that also. SuperMario1: Thanks for your input on the Pro-Mix. Sounds like a good product.
