Why do my propagation sometimes start to rot from the part where it was cut off and make it's way to the top? What can I do to keep this from happening? I really want to have a plant with roots that I can always see.

    A clean diagonal cut is the way to go and after cutting let it sit out for the wound to callous can help prevent rot. Personally when I first start a new prop I check on very often and cut off anything looking yucky before it can spread :)

      Let the cutting dry before putting it in water
