The majority of Nepenthes growers in Japan actually use (sterilized & very small grain) Kanuma instead of Sphagnum as the substrate for cuttings. Has a higher chance of rooting as it drastically reduces the chance of contamination (blocking water / nutrients to be absorbed from the cutting surface). Although unlike sphagnum, since there's very little nutrients in Kanuma vs Sphagnum, you need make sure to mildly fertilize the soil after seeing any kind of root growth.

In my oldest book on carnivorous plants the writer mentioned about making a notch in the vine then bending the vine to the pot of medium. Then putting some on top to anchor the stem in place while waiting for those nodes to activate.

Great video, especially with the 4months results. I only made cuttings out of a vining ventrata, but with a funny story. So my first nepenthes ventrata i ever bought really started to vine the hell out of it but at some point, the stem started to blacken (and not getting woody) but rotting. At that point i already had a basal out of that plant, and other nepenthes joined the squad. So i said.. screw it, i'll get rid of it (throw it in the bin), i dont want my other plans get affected. I didn't know about the making cuttings thing. The coincidence made that i've seen a video about it in the exact day. So i was thinking.. hmm.. maybe... So i rushed to the bin before my gf took it out and "rescued" the vine, made the proper steps of the cuttings, placed it in sphagnum and voila. Now i have two successfull cuttings out of a prevoious trashed nepenthes 😂 Great success :)

My understanding of air layering is if you just wound the stem like you did, it keeps the upper part alive because it is still connected but there is no incentive to make roots because it's already being supplied with nutrients. I think the results would be different if you instead completely girdled the stem. I have never air layered nepenthes though, just a theory

Air Layering > I used it for any plant...Plum, Figs, Peach, you name it - 100% success. I learned it some 50 years ago. I did it by a slightly different method: Diagonal opposite cuttings - Leaving between 15% to 35% intact total of the existing superficial bark in two opposite strips... to regulate the sap passing there. And I don't touch the core at all. I have a big Bloody Mary that needs a resize. I will try to apply it to the bigger whine. A first for me on CP.

I haven't heard of these different ways to do Cuttings. But good to know. Everyone I know uses the Method with just Sphagnum, maybe because it is the best Method. My Plants aren't so big that they have to be cut except for my Ventrata but it is just starting to have Basals and it starts to make Uppers.

Hi Remy, hope you are well. I only do stem cuttings and basal cuttings usually in pure sphagnum. I have tried it in a regular mix too and I have not noticed a difference between the two. I do mine in modules in a propagator (unheated). I did one Vmax stem cutting this year in water. It was way faster than the ones in the modules. Cheers Adam

@@WindowsillNepenthes in a word no. I did the water cutting in a slim jar that had anchovies in it. If you do it right and leave a bit of the leaves on it, it sits on the rim of the jar so that the bottom cut part is not on the bottom of the jar. I have reached capacity for plant space now. No new divisions till spring for me. Cheers Adam

Great video! Just my experience the reason the air layering failed is because for layering to work on most plants you have to completely cut off rhe outer stem and leave only the inner at the node you wish to root. This forces the top of the cutting to root or die and if you leave any of the outer stem the plant will focus on healing instead of rooting.

I always wondered, what happens to the original mother plant when you cut the vine? Does a new growth point come out of where you cut it or will it just push out a new basal shoot/node? 🤔 Also, is it possible for a basal shoot to grow in a basal shoot or node of its own? 😅
@WindowsillNepenthes
Жыл бұрын
The only time I see tiny plants activating nodes is when they come from TC. ;) And when you take cuttings, the mother plant will activated a dormant node as the roots are strong.

The cutting needs to get the same conditions as the mother plant (or a little more humid). And for becoming an adult, it depends on the species, but it's caster than with a basal shot. ;)

The pretty much take the same duration, around 4-5 months. I feel like the ziplock bag is a little bit faster. But that mainly depends on the temperature and the species. In doubt, let the roots grow an extra month as potting a cutting too soon will slow it down.
