I’m starting my first attempt at propagating succulents, I’m planning on getting a few more leaves to use but I don’t want to do too much until I know I can do this. I’ve placed it down flat on some soil and gently misted it. I’m still a little new to the whole plant thing, but I’ve really wanted to try this. Any advice?
It's going to wrinkle and shrivel but it will put out a plant... it takes some time. Only mist every once and awhile.

The leaf will wrinkle as it uses it’s stored energy to grow a new plant. You don’t really need to give it any water it until it’s started growing roots, and then I’d personally recommend giving it a small amount of water directly instead of misting it
