I have many pups that are coming up and I am wondering if anybody has any advice for seperating them from the mother plant. :?

Dean, Tom Broome's excellent article is here:

There was an additional article that I couldn't find...perhaps just speed-read the horticulture and care sections here:

Good luck, take some pics of your progress.

Dean, here's the article.

Tom sharing his many years of experience means we're less likely to make mistakes with our precious cycads.
