Hmmm! Now I'm going to try rooting cuttings again, after many years of having given up on that. Thanks!

>> Once the roots declare

Like, really short and very few, but definitely there?
Or wait until they're 1/2" long, or there are lots of them?

I bet it depends on what you're rooting.

this sounds a little like "puddling", which i read in an old gardening book, for planting some bare-roots shrubs (if I recall correctly). They suggested sloshing the adult but bare roots in mud until they were well-coated, then planting the whole thing.
