With rootlets about to extend from the lenticels, I potted the cuttings this morning.
4" pots using half Steins potting mix and half coir. I bottom watered them with a light liq fertilizer mix with superthrive.

I've started using 1/2 to 2/3 coir in my potting mix because it wicks up the water so well. I've found I can continue to bottom water the brugs in 3gal pots because that coir sucks it up and distributes so readily.
