Re: mold

Rick,
I did use *brand new* soilless mix, and *brand new* 1 gallon ZipLocks.  No, I
did not sterilize the cuttings. ( By this, I assume you mean a dip in a
slight bleach solution.)I did though, pull off all extra leaves, trying to
make sure that none were touchig the sides of the plastic. I wonder, if it
was because I overwatered in the initial setting up?

Karen in SE Michigan--who over spoke and realized that it was much cooler
outside than I had anticipated. Thereby making it only two days of warm
weather :-)

<< Karen, 
 The ones with mold are goners, at least in my experience.  Did you try and
 work more-or-less in sterile conditions: sterilize the cuttings, etc.?
