Euphorbia Rooting Recommendation

Post by coldcactusmontreal »

I have 4 cuttings of Euphorbia decaryi spirostitcha and two cuttings of Euphorbia decaryi. I've had them for weeks and they haven't rooted at all. They are place in dry soil. I've tried putting some in the dark because I read it might help. So far nothing has happened. Should I be watering them or spraying them with water? These cuttings are really important to me so I really want them to make it.

I would spray them with water as soon as the soil dries out. Keep them in very bright light with plenty of warmth. E. decaryi prefers more moister than one would think.

Oh really? Okay I'll start spraying them with water to keep them moist thanks. I didn't think they took more than shade, I have them under grow lamps and I think that is good for them
