I pruned my Jade and Dwarf Jade a few days ago and I want to dip a few in rooting hormone to see what happens any tips would be great also not sure if I should.

I propagated my jade and portulacaria afra by dipping in rooting hormones then plopping in perlite in a propagation box. There can be rot if you put them too deep into the growing medium. I found the most success kind of setting the tips onto the perlite.
