# Any tips on propagating in LECA? I just moved my snake plant to LECA…

_Publicado por Julia 🌱🪴 el 2023-07-17_

Any tips on propagating in LECA? I just moved my snake plant to LECA since it wasn’t growing much in soil, and accidentally ripped off a large leaf while cleaning up the dirt 😥. Can I put the leaf in with the rest of the plant in the LECA pot?

To be safe, I would put the leaf in a second container. Depending on how it came free it may root, but there’s a chance it may rot and kill the rest of the plant. In my opinion it’s not worth the risk
