i dont know how to put the pics in this website so ill explain here...i pulled out a leave and there wasnt any tissues there was juz a white colour stalk...i pulled out the whole leave but there wasnt white tissues...juz a long white stalk
I don't quite understand the question... well, a white stalk *is* the white tissue. That's what needs to be slightly under the soil when you put the cutting in it's own pot.
The best way to take a vft leaf cutting is to pull downward on the leaf so that some of the white portion is also removed from the underground bulb. This insures that you get a nice fleshy leaf portion that will have a high chance of budding out.
Below you will find a photo of my leaf cutting. The photo was taken some time ago and the new plantlets have traps.
Ok I have a question... Assuming a cutting does not need dormancy.. Right now sounds like a pretty good time to make VFT cuttings.. Am I correct? Should I wait till spring?
