I know everyone has their own things they do, but for me all I did was make sure there was clean water weekly and that I cut at an angle below an air root/ node! The rest is just patience!

What medium did you pot it in to lets the roots grow? I have mine just sitting in water and they don’t see to be doing much 😭

These roots were grown solely by water propagation! Sometimes it takes time- and you could also try either a rooting hormone or fertilizer to boost their growth! Sometimes they do grow very slowly- these have been growing for maybe a month!
