So I have been experimenting with self watering containers made from a 2 litter soda bottle this year. Think mini Global Buckets.

I have had a positive experience starting seeds using the self watering containers and wanted to find out if anyone has had any experience with cuttings going from the baggy into a self watering container. I am conserned that it might be over watering but so far with starting seeds that does not seem to be an issue.

If nobody has done it (I couldn't find any good discussions in a few forum searches) I may experiment with this years cuttings but I would apprecate some feedback before I go down that path.

I havent done exactly what your asking but i have successfully rooted cuttings in just water took a while but they took 

just read "SIP container" and i though i was back at work.. lol

I've not had any luck rooting cuttings in water.   They all rot.  Is there a secret to it?

Yeah probably just luck !!!!!!! Just gotta change the water and only put about 2in of the bottom of the cutting in it and if it doesnt root at least it wont die 

Thanks, Tony.

You're saying you don't let the cutting touch the bottom of the container?  What do you use to suspend the cutting?

Thanks,

noss

No noss you misunderstood me it can touch the bottom but only put about 2in of water in the cup/container etc just basically the bottom of the cutting dont fully submerse it 

Didn't work for me.  Too wet.
