Yes sorry, moved it to here:
willow twigs and making a tea out of that. So I did, kept the tea overnight in the fridge and this morning made a new cutting, placed it in the solution of the homemade hormone... cutting looks wilted now, but will be in a better shape tomorrow, will it grow roots and if so by when, that's the question...
No, I can't tell what the cutting is. The photo is a bit too dark.
However, chopping willow twigs and using them to make a tea gives you a primative form of aspirin. Willows are in the genus Salix. Aspirin is salicylic acid and was originally derived from willow bark.
Rooting a plant in water is generally not a good idea. The resulting roots are generally too tender to survive the trauma of being planted in soil.
