African violets Fuschia and Ivy any help and info on these plants would be great. currently I have 2 cuttings from each sitting in jars of water should I add anything to the water or just leave it. I have also read that I should change the water every few days I am wondering if that is true. thanks Nathan Quote \| Reply \| Report

My mom used to do that all the time and I have gotten back into them recently. The rest I am not sure about. Quote \| Reply \| Report

I will add water to the container to maintain the water level. I don't add anything to the water. I leave the cuttings in the water until a good root system is formed. Then I transplant them into potting soil. Quote \| Reply \| Report
