A new era is coming guys. Images are becoming almost unnecessary. New fashion that is more appropriate is the video. This is how a man can say what he wants. I also support John for this. Many more things can also see and understand the person on the video than photos.This is the way indeed. Thanks John!
A great vid mate as always!

I would not do a Basel shoot cutting as this is where you new large lower pitchers will come from !! so it defeats the or taking a cutting from there , because when the plant gets upper pitchers and vines up, the pitchers become small and loose there lower pitcher shape and colour , this is why I take the more lanky upper vine for cuttings and not Basel shoots , hope this make sense for you
