Root Riot cubes. These three cuttings were placed in Root Riot cubes on March 12, 2013 and today I moved them into one gal pots. When placed into the cubes, I scored each and dipped into Clonex Gel. Today, they went into the pots using Fertilome Ultimate Potting Mix, with nothing else added at the recommendation of Rafed. MACOOL MACOOL #2 PANACHEE

Congrats they look great. I love the rooting riot set up. Uses up less space and the cuttings root very nicely. I've lost a few here and there, but my overall success has been around 90-95% with no mold issues. And I like that the roots are a beefy when they sprout - makes me less antsy about the transplanting process. __________________ Seattle area - Zone 8b http://www.niroha.com Fig Inventory https://sites.google.com/site/nicholesgardeninventory/fig-trees Wish list: Barbillone, Black Triana, Brooklyn Dark, Brooklyn White, Figo Branco, Figo Preto, Grantham Royal, Grisse de St Jean, Honey Jumbo, LSU Gold, LSU Scott's Yellow, Matta, Noire De Caromb, Panevino Dark, Roja, Syrian Long, Uncle Corky's Honey Delight

I believe I am sold on the Root Riot cubes. When they have roots they go in the one gal pot skipping the dreaded cup. It appears that they develop leaves faster also.
