Any tips on how to propagate succulent leaves? So far I’ve got them on a wet paper towel but i’m thinking i accidentally soaked it too much… I also am not sure which method to use since some put them in soil or in a glass water container

You can lay them in a sunny window sill and they’ll sprout. No need for so much humidity.

to add to this, I originally tried wet soil and nothing was happening … i kind of forgot about them and then i noticed they started growing after letting the soil dry out!

can they lay ontop of the soil?
