Well, I have finally lost my mind but I decided I wanted to see if it would work. I have very large, thick stemmed leaves on my Phanomenal and I decided to remove the bottom most leaves to encourage more top growth. The leaf stems were so large I decided to see if they would develop nubs as the cuttings do. I cut off most of the leaf and was left with a six inch piece and placed it in water. It is developing nubs.

I also have one I stuck directly in the soil in one of my large pots and I can't tell anything about that yet except it is still firm after 7 days.

Has anyone else ever tried this?
