Some people swear by plant propagation in water. For taking cuttings of roses, I've always stuck with potting soil, but I thought I'd give a trial to cuttings in water instead. In this video, I compare cuttings of roses, hydrangea and figs under both methods. Quite aside from all the algae I had to deal with, the main issue was with how much quicker the ones in potting soil began to develop roots could it have to do with more access to air? I applied rooting hormone (liquid, dip n grow) to both to try to speed roots (or at least callus)
