| I took some cuttings from petunias three weeks ago. Now they have rooted well and have doubled in size. I will re pot this group this week and will need to trim them back. I would assume i can take the cutting from the newly rotted group?...Jack |

| You can but be careful about taking too much from any single plant. |

| no problem, just make sure your mother plant is very healthy |

| I have thought about doing the same thing, but I have more than enough petunias at this point and am out of space. You definitely want to at least pinch back the cutting, so they bush out. Three weeks seems a little young to do more than snip off one piece, but if you do that, in three more weeks it may be ready to give you several cutting from each. |
