Default Re: The best way to grow Drosera leaf cuttings.

Hello

I have had some Drosera leaf cuttings growing plantlets in water.

Some of the leaves have only produced one plantlet after about 6 weeks.

Do you suggest cutting the plantlets off the leaf cuttings soon after they produce roots and then putting the leaves that they have been cut from back into the water again so new plantlets may form? Note, the leaves may have some parts cut from them where I remove the plantlets in order to avoid damaging the plantlet.

Or alternatively should I leave the plantlets grow until they are fairly large for a few months so that more plantlets will get time to form and then cut them all off together to plant?

Your help is appreciated
Regards Richard.
