# My Lemon Lime is taking a long time to propagate.. I wanna say I cut…

_Posted by chynnaadoll\_ on 2024-05-21_

My Lemon Lime is taking a long time to propagate.. I wanna say I cut it like 3 weeks ago. And I still see no roots yet.

First photo: the top that I cut off and now have in water. Still no roots yet.  
Second photo: other half of lemon lime… but nothing is sprouting from the top either.

Mine has been in water for over two months and barely has any roots still. I’d just be patient and it’ll happen eventually.
