Cindy,
I took a picture of the pot I rooted 3 figs in - I got the idea from someone on DG a while ago. I first put a stopper in the drain hole of a clay pot and then center it in a larger pot. I fill all around the outside with vermiculite and put my cuttings in it. The clay pot oozes water out to keep the vermiculite moist and it's easy to see when I need to add water. The clay pot is full of water in the picture. I really need to take the 3 rooted figs out and pot them but have been too lazy.
