How long do nanouks take to start having roots? I’ve been moving other props in with mine to see if it’ll help, but I’m getting a little discouraged. Nanouk on the left, pellonia on the right.

Weeks, if it’s not rooting after a few weeks it may not be getting enough light

It could take a couple of weeks to see roots. Remove excess leaves. Cut the stems if they are too long (more than 4 new leaf nodes). Add more light, as suggested.
