| Many people recommend the sphag and bag technique, but I have recently switched over to something I find much more effective. If you can find a hydroponics store where you live, call them and see if they carry a small container, 2 oz, or 4 oz if you have a lot of plants, of Power Clone gel, not the liquid. A couple of drops per day of this at the base of the newest growth will most likely trigger a new growth which should produce new roots soon after starting. Sometimes, if the most recent growth is still immature, it will cause roots to start, but mostly very mature growths will not start new roots. See if you can remove any dry sheathing material over the eyes so the gel, which is very liquid, will contact live tissue.
Many Oerstedellas don't like pots. I have my centradinias in 4" baskets with sphagnum moss. Cynthia |
