I'll give it a go. This looks a lot like more normal method of rooting brug cuttings (soak in aerated water until nodules form, dust with fungicide and possibly rooting hormone, plant in high perlite medium until rooted). I don't normally pull all of the leaves off though--they tend to bleed. I've got a 1"/8' long branch in water right now, but I need to prune out a 2.5" diameter/10' long branch. Any comments on best temperatures for this? This time of year I'm running four greenhouses all at different temperatures...

Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, "In this world, Elwood, you must be" - she always called me Elwood - "In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant." Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me.
