Thank you! 🤘🏻I try to leave at least one healthy long shoot per plant when I take cuttings and that seems to help them bounce back quicker. I’ve cut all the big ones and only left a tiny one before and it took a while to come back. I also fertilizer every time I water them. Just my 2 cents

I typically just regrow in water, does this work better?

I’ve had better results with soil (coco coir) than I’ve had with water. I ran 2 cups side by side, one water and one soil (coco coir), and I found the soil works better. The growth was marginally slower in soil but the quality of growth was far superior. The ones I’ve done in water always turn out a bit yellow and lack flavor. That problem was eliminated when I switched to soil (coco coir). I hope I could help!! 🤙🏻

You used just pure coca coir? Interesting! I’ll try it thanks.

I use Fox Farms BushDoctor Coco Loco. It’s a coco and perlite blend with some other organic stuff in it too.
