I bought a Hydroponic cloner unit. I put some cuttings in there last Sunday. The most of them already have either white bumps or very small roots. Now question. Should I leave them in the cloner and see if they develop better roots or pull them at this point and pot them up in clear cups to watch root development? Lately I have seen some Figs here would love to try and root. The LSU Red, Purple, Stawberry Verte, and Adriatic JH. Only problem would be having the room here for all of them. Thanks to Danny K over in Wascom for his help.

Twenty-one to 30 days should be fine depending on your water temperature and root growth.
