Hi Jim,
Good advice from Olaf...

All I do is stick the cutting in my mix which I call 'wick mix'...1:2:1...water and then enclose in a zip baggie and place on the top shelf or since it is summer, I can place on a windowsill that doesn't get any direct sun. I use a small pot or solo that has holes for drainage of course. I do this and use this mix on any and all cuttings and continue to use it if I plan to wick water which I do on all gessies except for streps.

PS: Note to Olaf...compliments on your sinningia. Really nice.
