I’ve never propped a succulent in water before but it’s been super easy actually! This is variegated baby sun rose. Do you think the roots are enough that I can put into soil now?

i think they are just barely big enough, but what helps my props grow successfully once i transfer them to soil is first putting some soil in the water and leaving it for a few weeks just so the plant can get used to it
