 I'm not in favor of it. I think it takes a long time, and sometimes, frankly, when you see that, you'll see a test of those that have been done. The root cuttings are slightly faster than the simple whips that you might have tried to root, but they are also sometimes not particularly well-shaped, and actually that's what can make a big difference in how you feel about the plant later on is actually what it looks like. So I would just cut them. It would be my choice.
