Any pics?  How long did it take?   And how did you do it?  Did you strip all the leaves or leave them on?

with a paint brush i applied rooting hormone,cut away leaves and growth shoots where the rockwool is going to sit, then wrapped the stem with the rockwool that i had cut a slit in, wich went to the center of the RW cube, then twisty tied around that that. all and all it took 10 days , wich is about how long my soil ones took, to take. mind though the fact is the airlayered one had longer roots in the same amoutnt of time. honestly after seeing what a pain in the but air layering is, i will not use again on salvia cause she roots easy in soil. but for harder to do plants like kratom it might be worth it.

oops didn't see post....probably should  be in the salvia plane...

I do alot of ground layering, have only recently been doing dirt in pots with cuttings, instead of water cuttings.  Plants seem pretty resiliant no matter how one approaches spreading them....haha ''cept seeds of course, but we'll see about that this fall!!!!  I got the hummingbird feeders out/////
