OP Maine-ly Bees Member Joined: May 2006 Bowdoinham, Maine	I was given some cuttings from a friends pencil cactus and am wondering about rooting them. I am treating them like my jade plant, just stick the cuttings in soil and water them sparingly. My jade plant did very well this way and is doing great. Is there anything different I should do? Are there any better ways of propogating this plant? Thank you all. David
