I just pulled my cuttings out of the pots, I guess some I cut above the node and others I cut below. The ones that I cut below the node have roots, to my amazement. When I was checking them the other day I pulled 3 out of the soil and just so happens that I pulled the only 3 without roots. Lol
So I cut those ones below the next node but there are no leaves left on them or just one little yellowing leaf. And two that do have roots just have one long root and no leaves. The stems are still green though. Do they really need the leaves to survive?

Thanks for all of the answers to my million questions. Last week I bought the book "Plant Propagation A to Z" maybe I should start to read it. Lol :)
