The power of scoria (lava rock)

[SouthPark]

Also ------- one possible thing for ebay buyers to ask a seller is whether or not the stem node cutting has those outgrowth features (for the new leaves to develop).

From that same time-lapse video, it's noticed that the stem node cuttings that were eventually successfully propagated ------ all had those buds on them.

The remaining one didn't do anything or much at all ----- but still shows some hope of growing (because it didn't rot --- didn't change to black coloured over the duration of days). Not sure whether that last one actually made it. I wouldn't be surprised that the last one didn't actually make it - even though I think the person making the video mentioned something about a swelling or bump developing later.

Below is a screenshot (image) of the youtube video frame.
