Does SIZE Matter? Propagating Spekboom/Dwarf Jade Cuttings

I found a Spekboom all chopped up next to a dumpster at the dumpsite, and couldn't just let it die.
We have to propagate and try to revive this beast!
When propagating a Portulacaria Afra / Dwarf Jade / Spekboom, you always need to watch out for overwatering.
Especially with big cuttings.
Large cuttings only get watered once every two weeks.
All of them are outside, in a shady area that receives morning sun.
Shout out in the comments if you have any questions about them!

Hi again,how long do the big cuttings like yours to root?and do you need cuttings with leaves to root a cuttings?

[@MimNat]

Hi!
Funnily enough, I haven't really thought about how long it takes.
I usually see new growth in about a month.
Some take longer, and some will be faster, depending on the climate.
I had a few cuttings that didn't have any leaves on, and after a year they didn't grow any leaves., but I also have had cuttings that didn't have leaves, grow.
So I tend to try and keep leaves on, but generally, if it's from a branch that had leaves on at the time of making the cutting, it will most probably grow.
