I need some help please

A little mold on one side



But other side is looking good..




What can I do?

You can spray some 10% bleach solution on it.  You could also just cut the very end off.  I don't see a node close by so you should be good.  The cutting looks like it's doing good otherwise.

Ok I had a fine tooth saw and cut the Mold off all of the clippings. I'm happy they are big clipping so I can take more if and when I need to. Should I have a certain type of Saw or clipper for this ? Or just use the fine tooth hobby Saw?

I assume this will be a race between the mold coming back and me cutting more? Also the 10% Bleach is there a chart with ratio of bleach?

Or just 1/4 Cup Bleach and 2 1/4 Water. Do I spray just the moldy part? Or the whole clipping and wipe off or leave and put it back in the bag?

Also thanks so much for helping me.

Physan 20......and you will never see mold again.

I was reading up on Physan 20 I'll order it. For now I will use the bleach but I need to know the proper application method.

I recently had the same thing.   I took my cuttings and dunked them in a mild bleach wash in my  laundry sink.  I then brushed gently with a soft toothbrush.  Patted dry with a clean paper towel.   and then started my rooting process over with a damp towel and clean plastic bag   I will buy some of the Physan that Dennis spoke of   for future presprouting routine.    

I had same issue with a cutting this winter. The end looked moldy like yours, wouldn't callous up properly, and wouldn't root out. I scored the scion about an inch up from the cut end (in the 3-inch section between nodes) and applied some clonex gel with a q-tip to the scored area. A week later, it's beginning to put out its first signs of a root from within the score mark. This is my first time using clonex, but hopefully it will be a useful trick when I can't get the root end to perform. Good luck. Thanks for mentioning Physan20, Dennis. I remember you talking about this last year and I couldn't for the life of me remember the product you used. 

So I cleaned all of the Cuttings with the Bleach solution and a toothbrush.



After applying the Clonex what do you place the cutting in?

I have had no mold since using the bleach solution on all of my clippings. I scrub them down lightly with an old toothbrush. 1/4 Cup Bleach and 2 1/4 Water mixture. For a second I submerge both ends.

Thanks guys!

Make sure the roots come out of the bottom of the cutting, not the top. I use Chinosol antifungal bath, which is awesome stuff but hard to find and expensive. I have a lifetime supply of it.
