Just wanted to show my current propagations and my latest haul, I’ve discovered Etsy propagation mystery boxes and it’s been so fun!

After well over 2 months, I was a little worried bc my watermelon peperomia prop was root bound, but hadn’t produced new shoots. Turns out the baby shoots had gotten trapped under all the roots 🤦‍♀️. 3rd pic is of the shoots after repotting

Could my plant get rust fungus if I use these shears with a bit of rust of them. I would spray it with hydrogen peroxide beforehand to sterilise them but I don’t want to risk my plant getting rust fungus. If you can please let me know what I should do and if it’s okay to use

Bought a mystery prop container and after ~2 months I just moved them all into their own container since they had big enough roots. I’m curious if anyone can identify the plants here so I make sure they get the right light & water. If not, should I consider putting them in bags/covering them to continue creating a humid environment?

Hoping to propagate this monstera plant but I’m a total beginner so hoping for some advice. The leaves seem healthy enough? And it has lived forever! (Grown from a propagation that was gifted to me at least 3 years ago). I just don’t know where to cut and how many spots should be cut to keep this one healthy (seems like there may be more than one spot that needs propagating?) if anybody has any useful links I can use to help me with this even, that would be awesome. TIA!

My succulent propagations have had no change. They have been under a grow light getting about 60ppfd for 3 weeks. I haven’t watered the soil or used rotting hormone of them. This is my first time propagating succulents as I am more into tropical plants. Can anyone give me any tips. Are they maybe not at the correct angle against the soil?

How do I get rid of the brown stuff at the bottom of this test tube. I’ve been changing out the water every 1-2 weeks but there is still this brown stuff, that I don’t know what it is. The root of this Cebu blue cutting is also not white/ pale. Does anyone know the reason for this. Cheers

I’m trying so hard to be patient with my props 😅 I’ve had no trouble propagating my own cuttings for a while now, so I decided to challenge myself and buy some props of plants that I don’t have. Of course, some of the ones I’m most invested in aren’t doing so hot. The Florida ghost had a great looking aerial, but it turned out to be snapped near the stem, so that was no help. I’ve got most of them in a mix of sphagnum, perlite, and stratum. Maybe I should have gone straight water prop. It’s stressful watching the stems pucker with little to no new root growth. But I’m sure I’m not helping by poking and prodding every 15 minutes 😮‍💨 Wish me luck

Hi everyone, I was changing the water out it one of my monstera props and noticed it was brown on some of the roots and I was wondering if everything was okay? I’ve never seen this before so I’m just hoping it’s okay?

After six days of propagating the reverse spider plant babies, I am excited to see the roots starting to grow! I would appreciate any advice on how long I should wait before transferring them into soil. Thanks!

The nursery guy let me claw out a few random plants pieces from the nursery grounds. They look so sad and floppy. Any tips on how to keep them alive - soil, light, etc?? I don’t have indoor space - but plenty of light or shade, water or no water, zone 11a

Hi! I was just wondering if since my ghost plant is growing air roots, would it be a good time to try and propagate it? I don’t really like how tall she has gotten and I have been wanting to try and prop her, but after a mishap on my part and her scaring me that she would die, I put the idea on hold. Now I’ve never done this before, so how would I go about propagating her from cutting? Where exactly should I cut? Will the mother plant still live even after all its leaves are gone? So many questions lol

How can I propagate this? It was two plants and now I have a plant and a cutting. Can I propagate it in water?
