The cuttings in the photo have since had a plastic bag over them, thanks to Keithmart. Do I need to spray them with the fungicide spray everyday & do I water them or does the moisture within the bag do that... Thanks Darren[/quote]

The best thing to do is follow the directions for the application of the fungicide. Usually applications are done on a weekly basis. I don't know what kind of fungicide you have so I am generalizing here. Regarding watering, you still will need to water but it will be much less since the bag will hold most of the moisture. You might want to take the bag off for about an hour or so once a week to let it air out a bit. This is probably around the time when you will need to water. Just don't let the cuttings dry out or the soil they are in. They need to remain moist.

Hi

You will only need to spray them with anti fungicide the once if you do not remove the bag as the air and soil should be free of any fungus. If you remove the bag it will allow botritus spores back in.

if the cuttings start to grow strongly, they will have probably rooted.

I would not expect roots for at least a month if not more.
