I put two cuttings of my Brown turkey fig in some soil and vermiculite and left them on the water heater in the furnace room.
A week later there was roots on top.
I thought maybe I planted them upside down by mistake.
So I pulled them out of the mix and saw roots on the bottom also.
I then got a bigger container planted them laying down.
I thought let the roots grow as they please.
Eventually they should send out shoots?
Anybody else have this happen?

With the right heat and humidity, they will grow root anywhere. I have had them in a perlite-vermiculite mix, in a cup, and nice humidity, and the roots grew from the portion above the "soil" line, as well as elsewhere. Roots is roots.

Thank you!!

I planted them laying down and some
roots are pushing throught the soil.
Also this morning I noticed two leaves
above the soil..
So all is well!!
