i’ve been going through my propagating journey too! make sure they have plenty of sunlight/grow light! i leave mine on 12 hours, i did 24/7 for awhile too. also make sure you change water at least every seven days! as soon as i want to give up on mine, they sprout roots like crazy! you got this!!!! 🫶🏻
