Do you have nodes in the water?

### Tara 🪴👶🏻 commented on 2024-02-03

It doesn’t look like there’s any node in the water.

### Kelsey commented on 2024-02-03

try trimming down the stem until you reach the node where the three leaves start. you should see roots within 2-4 weeks!

Ok thanks for the advice!

two weeks is not very long to have a prop sit in water, especially in winter. sometimes it will take months before they root in colder weather

Thankyou for the info

Put it in bright light 6 hours a day and in a warm room. Add SuperThrive plant vitamins to the water. It worked well for my cuttings in water.

Two weeks is not a long time especially if it’s colder by the window.
