My propagation station got knocked over by a gust of wind yesterday

I had 8 succulent cuttings rooting in little jars on the windowsill and a sudden draft sent them all crashing to the floor. Has anyone else lost a whole batch of props to something dumb like a stray breeze?

You're treating those cuttings like they're delicate museum pieces. A little tumble probably just toughened them up.

Oh man, @drew55 you have NO idea! My buddy Tom dropped a whole tray of rare succulents last spring and they ended up sprouting like crazy after the fall. He was so mad at first, but those little guys just grew back twice as thick and tough. I swear plants just need a little rough treatment sometimes to build character. Maybe those cuttings of yours will surprise you once they settle in.
