# I need to take those off because they’re coming out of the terrarium…

I need to take those off because they’re coming out of the terrarium again. I can’t remember if I need to let them callous over before I stick them in soil. Anybody know?

The go-to is let them callous for a few days, and I do stuff like dust the ends with cinnamon. Does the cinnamon actually promote root growth like I read it does? I wish these plants could talk.

If you’re curious, watch a vid of someone using corn starch to promote root growth in a cutting. Way more involved, but neato.

Thank you. I’ve used cinnamon before. Might not help but it can’t hurt. 👍🏼
