hi friends:) i’m wondering if this micans philodendron prop is ready for soil. i’ve had it in water for over a month and it doesn’t seem to be wanting to grow any more..is there anything i’m doing wrong?? i have another prop that’s only slightly younger and its roots have yet to come. picture isn’t the best but roots are about an inch long maybe a bit smaller. i know its recommended to wait till there about 3 inches long but they haven’t grown in a while. thank you!

    The roots don’t have the stores to hold water until they’re at least 2 inches long. Mine weren’t growing so I put them in a sunnier area and I noticed faster growth

    I think I had to wait a bit over a month for mine to grow long enough roots. It might have been two. Felt like forever.
