    I’ve had a snake plant cutting take 3-6 months before showing roots but I think you might need to have it in a clear container so it can get some light

      Oh! Never though about a clear container, might need to try that! Thanks!

    I just had a snake plant cutting take around 6 month or longer! He just wouldn’t root. But I put a cutting in soil around the same time and that grew in no time and also gave a pup.

      Hmmm maybe I should have planted it in soil from the beginning! Thanks 😅

    I would probably keep it in water just for the fun of being able to say I’ve been trying to grow it for 2+ years 🤪

    I’d say leave it and see how long it goes. 2 years and running.
