Hello! I have this floral design set my grandma bought off the tv back in the 90s and never used lol I was wondering if it could be used for propagating, or are the little bottles too small to be effective for that? I just thought it would be a neat idea lol

    Why not? I used tiny little bottles to put tiny little floral arrangements with like miniature roses, and whatnot tiny flowers, in before just add charm around the house I love it

      I do miniature bouquets, too, in small vases, usually a little larger than these. I also propagate in many tiny containers like this. It depends somewhat on the size of the plant.

    I think that could be really cool! Your only issue might be that the roots don't get to big. Just take the cuttings out every week or so, and they should be alright :)

      Yeah, that's one of the things I was worried about, but I usually don't let my roots get too long when I prop them in water anyway. I'm so excited to try it out! :3

    I have a million baby spideys and tiny one and two inch shot glasses / bottles and when the roots get too big I just pinch them off or cut them off and put them back in LOL they honestly grow much better in water just a fun fact 😉🪴🙃 I bought a pH kit so I can figure out how to fertilize them right, and adjust the ph and all that but it's like acid, and I'm blind , so I have not gotten that far

    You might want a few larger vases so you can size up for any props that need it, but otherwise that'd look fantastic with all the little leaves

    I actually do have my monkey mask and monstera deliciosa props rooting in a 2 oz little jar as we speak
