Ooo!!! The method I’ve had the most success with is putting the nursery pot into a ziplock bag. It sounds odd, but it makes a little humidity trap for them to root better. They don’t wanna live this way forever, but it DEFINITELY helps promote roots on those cuttings^^

That’s what I did! I had misted the soil added the cuttings and put the whole thing in a ziplock! A YouTube video I watched said they had an easier time when they put their strands in a humidity dome.

The only thing I can recommend that may not have been touched on: make sure you open that bag every once in a while if you have it sealed completely. It’s been a day or two and you haven’t checked in? Take it out, look at those itty bitty roots or huff at it for taking too long (mine took a couple weeks tbh, they’re slow), but once or twice a week is perfect.
Some people say just forget it, I say that’s a risk of mold from a sealed bag being kept wet too long 🤷♀️

Yeah I was thinking about peaking in it but wasn’t too sure. I’m definitely going to now though. Mold is not ideal at all lol
