Well I finally got a camera up and going so I can share the results of rooting new green tips vs. old woody stumps. The woody 2 that I put in the bubbler approximately 2 weeks ago barely have bumps on them but the green shoots with new foliage are all rooted enough to plant. I'll take more pictures when I have time.
The other cutting in these pictures is a Passiflora Lavender lady where i used a razor blade to scrape away the outter most layer of "skin" to get to the inner level or meristem I think is what its called. This method is called stem or root scarification and as you can see, the roots grew out of the 2 areas I scraped. I don't see this being needed for brugs but I'm going to try it on older woody stemmed brugs maybe.
I also found out that when your rooting brugs in a bubbling bucket, you only want a couple inches of stem under water or in my case a maxicrop/Superthrive/water solution. The other cuts that I didn't support and several inches of stem went under water didn't root nearly as much as the others. I think it's due too having too much surface area on the stem trying to root rather than just a couple inches submerged under water. Just my lil observation and opinion. I'll be taking more cuts to try and support these ideas ASAP.
Take a look.
Please excuse my lack of spelling and grammar, I'm to tired to edit now;)
