Im going to more or less redo everything with another cutting in a geopot and see if i can get it to send a runner too.

The runner in qustion is 3 and a half inches away from the base of cutting i did scrape a little of the sand/soil aside to see if theres in fact a arm or long root didnt see anything im unsure how deep the root or arm really is. next spring im planting this little guy in ground till then im curious to see how this little runner develops, the other thought on my mind is it considered a juvenile like a seedling or will it fruit right away once it has the right amount of mass like a mature cutting would once its grown?
