On 9/11 I decided to switch rooting mediums because she wasn't steady in the perlite. When I took her out she already had 3 roots about 1 1/2 inches long. I put her in seed starter and shocking enough to me, here she is today 9/17/07. I saw her leaves and was like "were those there before?" and actually had to go back and look at these pictures to realize she only had stumpy leaves before. Very cool.

Can't you tell she is my first cutting

First cutting?
Youre doing great!
Id graft a 6 inch cutting in a heartbeat rather than try to root it.
Well done!!

great job!!
Once the root nubs start the rest usually follows soon.

Malstrom. Why graft? and what graft to? I understand if you have a really tall one and want to make it shorter but why else This one to root was so easy and it is obviously growing

I would have grafted it too. It must be a seedling to root that fast. Here's a link about why we graft: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/687551/

I really don;t think I had anything to graft it to. I raise little seedlings. I do have one that is shrively and don't know if it is going to root but still, don;t have anything to graft it to.
