Post #6350217

My 5 year old plumeria started to rot. One of the limbs was still fine so I cut it off, it is about 9" long and greenish but no leaves at the tip. It is soft not a hardwood. I stuck it in a mix of potting soil and perlite to a depth of 4" last evening. Now I am reading that I should have let it dry out for 2 weeks. I read further on another google search and am told not to let it dry out.
I put it pot and all under a terrarium to keep it moist and have since read to not let it get too damp?
What is the best method??? Thanks in advance,
Candee
