The cutting measured about 6 cm. Base on my record, this is what I call Istanbul. A friend of mine Edward named it Turkish Vampire.

Inspecting the soil from the top of the poly bag.

The soil at the top section of the soil is not wet too.

Small root at the internal.

Further inspection shows a small root at the inside, no roots / roots died off at the outside.

Seal up the rotten part.

I clean up the rotted part and seal them off with tree dressing.
