Gina1960 said: The reason it declines after you let it form water roots and then put it into a soil mix is because water roots are useless. They are weak and fragile and not suited to immediately begin growing in soil. They have never toughened up from having to grow through a substrate and seek water. It's best to just put the cuttings immediately into soil.
