Too little to cut?

Post by kaitlyn25 »

I would like to cut my hybrid Chamaelobivia/Lobvia (that is what so kindly id'ed on the forum TY again!) the little ones off and possibly root them for new pots. Are they too little?

You might be able to. But I'd wait until it has better growth that's not etiolated so much and use that instead.

Well I did cut it today but only because I knocked it over with my bike after work. :(

Consider it an opportunity to get it into a better planting mix.

In a better planting mix I did. I spent almost an hour carefully washing the old mix out of the roots!
