Sorry to hear about his mother, wishing her a speedy recovery.
I GOT MY CUTTINGS, they were there a few days at least, but w/ no tracking, I would need to travel over an hour just to hope they were there...an the other days were my holidays when i do not travel....
Well in any regard they are covered in white fuzzy stuff that I hope to scrub off with a tooth brush and Hydrogen Peroxide.
Thank you to all for the good wishes, and Esp. our Canadian neighbor up north.
Edited to add: I cleaned off the white fuzzy stuff and dipped in watered down bleach solution. Looks OK for now...my experiance with mold is that it often comes back. To try and hamper any possible return of mold I am going to try a mostly
builders sand mix with some peat moss.
