I do sometimes when I remember add some hydrogen peroxide to the water to increase the oxygen. I have tried the bubbler method, and it worked ok, but attracted fungus gnats. These have worked ok, but not great, I don't think i have ever put the cuttings under lights. Guess if I ever get tempted again to try late fall or winter cuttings I can try that.

Spring and summer cuttings I just push them into moist and sand wait. I don't think I have ever lost any that way.

I may try some under my LED lights. The way my seedlings are growing under them you would think they where outside in the summer.

This picture is of seedlings I started last summer, they dropped all of their leaves when I brought them inside. I put then in a make shift grow box with LED lights, they have taken off and have grown right into the lights. i had to adjust the shelves today to give them more room. The red and blue lights do make the colors look weird, but they all have nice green leaves and one is y'ing.
