Cutting - 4 weeks old


Cutting - 4 weeks old, originally uploaded by pennyeast.

The Blog Baby cutting is now 4 weeks old and all can be revealed!

I took the plastic cover off this morning and was delighted to see that there is new growth. This, and the fact that the little cutting resisted a gentle tug are proof that the cutting has rooted and is now a viable young plant!

This means that I can leave the cover off now, and return it to where it was for a week so that it can acclimatise and toughen up a little before I pot it up.

I will have to check the moisture content daily now and water if necessary as it is open to the elements and will dry out quite fast in its tiny pot.
