on 4/17/2008 I generated new roots from cuttings - left them in water about 4 weeks.
I moved it from water to soil, now the plant is turning yellow in some spots. I have had it in soil about 2 weeks. What else should i do? i have it at my desk and level the florecent lights on 8.5 hours a day. On the week ends someone comes along and turns the lights off... is it lighting? I didnt have an issue while rooting?
