toby Posted March 18, 2002 it was really hot here today, and i had cutting healing in the same place as for the past week, this afternoon the most exposed rib and a half are yellowish and quite shrivelled ,(it was flawless this morning)my question is, is this just dehydration that will fix itself when roots form or is it wrecked completely, also should cuttings usually be left in the shade?

Torsten Posted March 18, 2002 sunburn!! won't get fixed by re-hydration. But with a bit of luck it will dry off and won't be a problem. Try to root from an unaffected section or this yellow stuff might end up rotting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

t st tantra Posted March 19, 2002 might pay to plant as soon as the cut has fully healed.dont let it dry out anymore than you must. t s t . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
