How Long Before House Plants Grow from Tip Cuttings?

So these plants were both stuck on the same day, let's see if we can get a plant out. This was done about three weeks ago, so we have a nice root system on this spider plant, beautiful, then I have this wandering jew here, which is a slow, slower growing plant, which , I think, no see I can't even pull the plug out, it's slower, I mean it's growing, it's rooting, but it's not as fast as the spider, so some plants are going to be a fast, some are going to be slower, I think if the plant is a fast grower it should probably be a fast rooter, but then something you never know.
