i think i’m going to go for a 4” pot but i don’t want to kill the shoots to die via shock so i’m not very sure. the shoots are coming from a fully mature Raven ZZ plant that I purchased 2 weeks ago. A friend was interested so I offered to give her a piece that’d ideally survive. the plant that i got is far too large for the pot that it’s in and is made up of 6 different cuttings that developed root bulbs/systems.

I’d try one in a jar of water to see if it roots.

i agree you definitely need a bigger root system if you can get one, see if you can root them in a jar of water
