Looks good to me. Just keep an eye on the water... If it starts getting gross, change it out. I have had rooting accelerate by putting a pothos cutting in there if you have any pothos... They put out crazy amounts of growing hormone. Good luck!!!

Perfect thank you! I do have a couple pothos I will look I’d I have any that are ready to be cut! Thank you!!!

Once the pothos has done its job and has roots, you can plant him back in with the mother plant if you don't want a separate plant. I like my plant kids to work for a living!!!! Lol I have a citronella and a grapefruit mint and while I love them, their job is PEST CONTROL.

Ohhhh thank you for those pointers as well cause I’ve been working on getting rid of my plant pest for a little I’ve tried neems oil and was gunna try mosquito bits but I’m always so scared of harming my plants 😟 ima put my pothos tooo werk

I haven't used mosquitos yet but i do spray my plants with a neem and peppermint oil spray. Seems to work just fine... All I see are the occasional fruit fly.

I’ve been having a slight gnat issue but they aren’t distructive my fiancés momma told me about the mosquito bits so I added them to my problem children and am praying they don’t cause any harm 😅

You can’t mess these up! As long as your cuttings have nodes these prop really easily 😁 air layering is a good option for them too, look it up 👀

Looking it up now!!
