Hey ReallyHi,

How long is the tail when you plant it? I've had the best luck when it is at least 1/2 inch long and then I put it in a JIFFY pellet. It's one of those hockeypuck looking things that you soak in water until they swell up. The nice thing about using them is when the roots start growing out through the side of the thing, you just make a big enough hole in your soil and plant the whole thing. Also use SUPERTHRIVE (1 drop per cup) in the water, use lukewarm not cold water, and if you're using tap water let it sit for at least a day so the chlorine dissapates. Hope that helps.
