Just got this in from ordering online, Like to hear your opinions, read that the powder is not that good. If possible I have a second question: My friend from Mexico City wants me to send him some cuttings and he suggested putting clonex on them ??? I was wondering with it taking 7-10 days shipping wouldn't the moist paper towel and clonex, not work well for the long trip ???? Any Suggestions are appreciated. Do I score the cutting and put the Gel on ???? Attached Images Clonex_100_mL.jpg (23.46 KB, 3 views)

I score it and put the gel on. Mailing it after that should be fine if the cutting can't move enough to damage the roots. Shipping it in Jon's U-Line bag method should work fine. __________________ Zone 6, MO Wish list: Galicia Negra, De La Reina - Pons, Genovese Nero - Rafed's, Sbayi, Souadi, Acciano, Any Rimada, Sodus Sicilian, any Bass, Pons or Axier fig, any great tasting fig.

Thank You Bob for the quick response, still new to all of this. My friend soaks the cuttings for about an hour before starting the rooting process in a bag. He said that he compared cuttings some soaked and some not and the soaked cuttings rooted faster. How long before I see roots so I can put my timer on...LOL

Does you timer have a calendar setting? I find looking at them three or four times a day helps them to root. __________________ Gloria --------------- 7a, maybe 8

I check my rooting bins every morning. __________________ Meghan Cobb ~ Growing zone 9 Wish List: Pane e Vino White and /or Dark, De la Reina, Iranian mountain fig and anything else that is great to grow or at least try in the hot and humid Southeast Texas.
