As far as time, I couldnt say.... When the main leaf goes dormant or starts
sending up a new leaf, I tend to repot, so when repotting, I just pot up the
little one by itself.
I will admit something however, I have found that these little offsets will
ultimately go dormant and then they seem to take a long time to come back up.
The little titanum offset I got at one point took almost a year to come up
again.
