Finally, last picture. This is the table top bin with the cuttings view from overhead. You can see the sand between the home made pots. I learned by trial and error. Put the pots in first on top of the small layer of sand then fill in with sand between them. I used one of my smaller soda bottles without holes in the bottom to scoop up sand and was able to squeeze it almost closed to direct a small stream of sand into the smaller areas between the pots. You can see that I did get some sand into some of the pots.


I hope this has helped some of you with ideas of what you can also do to help start cuttings in the winter... or actually, any time of the year.

The best part is double the space and you can make it any size you want. My plants are really happy. The cuttings on top are new ... about 2 weeks old and some are already showing signs of waking up... not visible in the pictures. About 1/2 I just potted yesterday.
