I cut these off my rubber tree about 36 hours ago. Do I put them in water or soil? What type of soil if so?

    Water. You have alot of leaves, you might want to lose a few, it wont be able to support that many

    Yeah try to clip a few leaves off of each. Maybe try to leave 3 max and then trim the stem so it’s a bit shorter. I’d also clean the remaining leaves so they can soak up as much sun for the new roots. I’d go water until you have a nice little bunch of roots to go into soil. Good luck!!

    Same as the stems but I would use wet perlite
