I started these cuttings around the middle of November this is how they looked when I potted them up after rooting them with the exception of the 2 little leaves and this is how they look today approximately 4 months 2 weeks later tips are green definitely alive jus frozen in time , did this happen to anyone else with MR's ? |

I started a lot of cuttings in October and many did the same. I wondered if it might be my t-8 lights just not being strong enough for lush growth. Since I've put them out in the greenhouse where its warmer and brighter many have started growing more. Just make sure not to overwater them while they are like this. They will likely take off as soon as they are outside. :) |

My Martinenca Rimada did not do this but other rooted cuttings have. I agree with Tyler that once the weather warms up and you get them out in the sun they should take off. Just remember to acclimate them slowly. I just moved all my rooted cuttings outside over the weekend and hoping to see them putting on new growth soon. |

I am having the same problem, some rooted cuttings just sit there day in day out in a kind of stasis. A CDD Rimada and a Bourjasotte Gris. Natural warmth and sunshine have got to be the best remedy. Maybe some dolomitic limestone and organic minerals to help them thrive, maybe some B-1. |

I don't think the problem is heat or light the right above an 8 ft base board heater and here's a picture of other cuttings I started at the same time lush green leaves ??? |

Its still indoors, there's something about nature that cures all ills. Try it. I have the same problem, I expect improvements in the greenhouse. |

Aside from lack of top growth they look great! I bet the pot is chock full of roots too! |
