The splitters are $2.00 at the depot. They should be an easy find. I would like to find FOUR WAY splitters. I saw them on the idiot box on finished lamps. Hate using 3 two way to get a four way.
It's not specific to weed but "Gardening 101" says to never to cover exposed stem with more dirt. I don't know about weed but stem rot occurs in woodies. For you guys practicing replanting are you covering softwood or semi-soft wood with success?? Could you scratch the stem and use rooting hormones?
I have a plant I'm gonna pull out of my box.... Maybe I will give it a test and pinch off a set of leaves and plant it as deep as the first node. I wonder?
