Lay it on top of cactus soil. Mist it lightly once a week or every two weeks. Place it in bright light. The roots will emerge and tap into the ground as it puts out a new plant. The new plant will use up the fluids in the leaf making the leaf dry out. Ideally, the new roots will sufficiently grow to support the new plant. It will take weeks to months to develop. 🪴🍀

Yes! I propagated a leaf that fell off my succulent recently. All I did was place it in some succulent potting mix (I use the one by Miracle-Gro), watered it and it started growing fairly quickly!
