Any luck with roots? I always have a hard time getting stems to root. I’ve tried the water method, in a ziplock, and in soil. Never any luck. Any tips?

@rudester1 this was unintentional. My dogs broke a branch off so I decided to stick it in soil. I'm not sure how the roots are doing, but its been in there like 2 months, and is still green, so I have to think its working. I'll report back!

I had a few cuttings sealed in a jar for about two months and there’s a little growth but no roots. I transferred to soil to see if they take. Fingers crossed. @lreasons
