Dude........
If you don't know whether or not you have roots yet, don't go cutting leaves.
What would possess you to cut leaves anyway?

Did you not read any of the replies to your questions yesterday? I remember at least 3 people that explained it for you.

Therein lies the problem. You start doing things to your plants, and even worse offering advice to others, and have no idea what you are trying to accomplish.

(BTW the main purpose of trimming larger leaves is so the cutting won't transpire as much water and dry out, since it no longer has roots.)

It may well be more humid in there today but it has nothing to do with you trimming leaves, that would have the opposite effect. Chances are you added water, misted them, or have them under more heat.

      Be my guest Bakatare. Reading this thread reminded me Sybil is showing on one of the movie channels tonight, think I'll twist one up and catch it.

I didn't cut my leaves.

In my humble opinion, if you cut the leaves, the plant is gonna spend energy healing the cut.

As long as you mist plant and dome twice a day and keep humidity up, the plant will form roots.

Agree with that, as long as they are green and healthy leave them alone, if the tips start to brown knock them back. All you are doing at that point is what the plant is doing for itself, shedding leaf to conserve water.
