It's well intentioned advice: "Leave the cuttings undisturbed - you'll damage the young roots!". My view is a bit different. I frequently check young cuttings in my propagation area for all sorts of things: leaf condition, new shoots, moisture and temperature. I also pull up my cuttings to inspect the base for the formation of callus, roots or early signs of rot. I find it useful to get early feedback on my cutting methods and growing conditions. Yes, I advise restraint once the cutting begins to "pull back" with young roots, but even then I'm pretty quick to tip a plant out of its pots to check if its rooted to the side. Are you a "hands-on" propagator? Or are you patient an well-behaved?
