Westes, yes I do understand what I read, so I am fully aware of the fact that this is a cutting.

You don’t however seem to understand the difference of certain botanical structures as you refer to both leaves and roots as stems, when in fact they are all completely different in looks, position and function.

I still maintain that to keep removing any plant from its mix in this way (whether it be a cutting that is trying to root or a mature plant that you are encouraging to grow newer/more roots after a repot for e.g.) this bizarre watering method is not conducive to good root regrowth, and it would probably have grown more roots had it been left alone. I am certain that 99.9% of growers on here will agree.

If you think the plant is ‘doing well now’, that’s just fine by me, good luck :-)
