Not a problem. It is always fun to see how others are doing :)

Ok, these are terrible pictures (BlackBerry with poor lighting), should have shot during the daytime?  I'll post them anyway.  Here is a long-shot of everything rooting right now.

Here's what I've got in the bins you see in that pic.  The left bin is all of my well-rooted-and-about-ready-for-the-window bunch.  The right bin is my newly (1-2 week) cuttings which are waiting for roots.  I keep a cycle going.... right side bin first, when good roots show, move to left hand bin, when leaves are developing well, they move to the mantle, then up to the window, then outdoors to harden off in the shade, then to full-on sun.

EDIT:  Too funny, I just noticed that the cuttings in the right-hand side actually have more leaves than the ones in the left ;)

Finally....here's everything else.  Hard to tell how many cups are here because a lot of these have really broken out.  I went ahead and shot both lids together, then the tall pics are both lids separate.

I use perennial trays on the mantle to separate my cups and make it easier to carry to the sink for watering.  Once well-established with tons of leaves, they get the upgrade into my metal tray (which I love).


This doesn't include all of my potted figs, which are outside right now.

Remis, if you don't mind I'll put a few of mine up also. I took inventory this morning to see exactly what I had and took some pictures.

My 1 and 2 year old trees.


Young ones started this winter.


Here's a cup full of roots all around but no but yet.


My mulberries about to ripen if the winds stops blowing and knocking them off.


My vegetable garden with my snap beans growing. Tomatoes behind beans near fence and okra on closest rows just breaking the soil.
