I wait till our temps overnight are stable 50F and higher...though this Spring, we did have some occasions of 49F but it's okay, we warm up really fast during daytime and daytime light is getting longer too. And our area is very dry, so just leaving the cuttings alone in part sun/shade. Our temps rise to 70F to 80F quick, except this week with this low front hovering late in the season..thankful for it though.
