Yossu Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 That's amazing! Did you do anything to the stalk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fryderyk Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 How did you do it? D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veek Posted May 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 I didn't so anything at all. It is all the plant its doing. I just found them like this and took pictures. :-) Verstuurd vanaf mijn GT-I9505 met Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampiresrus Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 It's a false vivipary and once the plant or plants are growing on the stalk sprout roots you can pot them up. I do this all the time and it is an ideal way of getting plants that are identical to the parent plant. Some years you get the odd one on a plant but other years so many on separate plants it is hard to keep up with them. This year they are shooting up everywhere so I guess weather is a factor. I have noticed that they occur in mild years and extremely cold years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veek Posted May 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 The weather probably is a deciding factor. Normally I cut off all the flower stalks from my VFT and I always put the stalks in the pot. Many of them though not all of them throw up new plants this way.

Today_is_a_good_Day Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 I did not know you could do this, will definitely be trying it next summer!Just a quick thought, would success be improved by dipping the ends with hormone powder?..just a thoughtSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 In my experience, an additional treatment with hormone substances (rhizopan, clonex) on cutted VFT flower stems does not have any further positive effect on making them root. Cut them at an early stage (approx. 3 cm) and just put them into chopped sphagnum. Success rate under my conditions (ordinary GH in Southern Germany with no additional illumination) depends on the clone, mostly between 60 - 90 %.
