you can snip them off and then plant them directly into soil :) some people put them in water first but i’ve had better luck just going straight to soil

Yea!! Pups all over

Ok I just got four of them started and threw the rest away because I don’t need that many 😭 but I put two in water and two straight into soil so we'll see what happens!

Never throw babies away just keep them on the plant they make it more beautiful or in the least offer the babies to neighbors or friends. This is my mom’s before I almost killed the whole plant.

You can also just leave them on the main plant!
