Photo of Bud on cutting

This is a cutting from Springsong and it has a bud on it (CDW), it took me a long time to figure out what CDW meant. I don't know how heavy it will get or if it will tip over because the cutting is about 6 inches tall, if that. There are a couple other cuttings that are getting buds too. Will they bloom on the cuttings in water? Should the buds be cut off so they give more strength to the root system? So far about a dozen of my cuttings have dried out, but I still have about 35 cuttings/most already rooted.

I think I have convinced my other half to set up a shelf with lights for me for these babies. My kitchen counter cannot be used until March/April otherwise.
