Need Help Please! I’m trying to propagate my lipstick plant (mona lisa). The plant was thin and long but not really full. I cut the cuttings close to how I found on a site about an inch from the leaves and used root powder (but I forgot to let it dry, I’m hoping that won’t affect them too badly). I put the cuttings in indoor plant soil mix inside small containers with lids (clamshells). I cut slits on the bottom for drainage, the sides and on the top to help it with some air flow but kept them small to help them stay humid. They are also on a seedling heat pad and have a grow light on for 6 -12 hrs. I would like to know if this is a good set up or should I change it? They have been in this set up for about a week. Thanks for any feedback. I’m a beginner so still learning the ropes 😊

    Hello. I LOVE this! I hope someone affirms that this is a great way to care for leaf propagations. I was thinking of buying 2 or 3 bell jar covers to prevent the evaporation from occurring so quickly. Right now I use dry cleaner plastic bags and they’re a pain in the pot. Where did you get the clam shell containers? (Please don’t say Amazon because then I’ll feel bad that I didn’t check first before asking like we all should do. 😊) I think I can say freely we are all always beginners, especially when it comes to caring for life. So beware of the person who says “I’m an expert.” because each plant, just like each child, will get on your nerves and make you rethink everything that you thought you already knew. 🤪 The plant word of John psalm 6:9:2024. Now go in plant piece(s), and propagate.

      I got the calm shells from Gordon’s Food supplies but you can get them off amazon. Search plastic clam shell containers.
