i received scindapsus cuttings from a friend and when i put the propagations in water they started wilting and turning black. the only mistake i can think of is i unknowingly used my water that had my liquid fertilizer mixed in but switched it to normal distilled water later in the day. any ideas of how else this can happen? i have cuttings from other plans she gave me and only a few turned black and the rest are fine
