If you only had ONE 6' cutting

Hi all,

I hope this isn't overkill with all the chatter about rooting cuttings. However, I recently received ONE piece of wood from a distant relative's property in Europe. The relative who sent me the cutting is not a fig guy, but I still don't know why he only sent me one cutting. The importance of giving this cutting it's best chance is purely sentimental but still very important to me. The fig could turn out to be anything. All I know is it's a green fig.

Since I've had mixed success with the various rooting methods I learned about here I'm seeking guidance.

So, if y'all don't mind, please weigh in on which method you would use to give a single cutting its best chance to root. The cutting is about 3/8" in diameter, about 6" long. It is pretty gnarly with nodes every inch or so, and includes the distal bud.

Thanks.

Henry
