<< Response to Meum 71 --- My question about the callus tissue was not "Are
 they a problem" but are they a precursor to rooting these leaves and how
 can I get the callus to differentiate into growing roots and stems.
 Should I apply certain chemicals or change light conditions to make the
 single leave with a callus at the base grow into a plant.

I believe that there is some cross talk here leading to some confusion. My
response was to the lady that had rooted some roses and she was seeing some
white growths were she cut the stems and she thought they might be a fungal
problem.

I do not know what material you are trying to root-but in many instances
callus formation is a precursor to rooting but not always.  

Some materials take long time to initiate root growth and wounding  has been
found to be desirable.  Callus forms along the longitudinal wound and root
formation is initiated from the callus.

If you could please inform me with what plant you are trying to root I might
be able to help.
