Just pulled my snake plant propagation out to check on it—there are tiny roots!! I’ve tried both water and soil prop, so far soil is working. I started this around the beginning of April. 🤩

How did you do this :)

(Sorry for the late reply, I just saw your comment. Hopefully this could still be of some help)  
I let it callous for about a week (maybe more), then put it in soil and neglect it. I only water it once the soil is completely dry, and make sure it has good lighting. Basically just treat it like a fully grown snake plant!

Awesome! I’ve been trying to propagate in water for months with no luck. Going to try soil.
