Bought these propagation starters about a week ago. (String of hearts, string of turtles, and streptocarpus) I’ve never propagated plants in anything but water. I’ve been misting the covered ones daily and the uncovered a few times a day to keep soil moist. Any other tips??? Should I aim to keep these constantly moist, very wet, or let dry in between watering?
Moved into my sorority house today and on the drive my mini monstera got some cold damage :( any chance at all that the damaged leaves could recover? The tall one unfurled like 2 days ago, I’m so sad
Should I repot her? I want her to keep growing. How can I propagate?
hello planty friends! looking for guidance for snake plant propagation - i’ve had this whale tail rooting in water and we’re finally seeing good progress! she really is doing her best 🤗 at what point does it get transplanted into soil? has anyone had success growing snake plants in semihydro? TIA for sharing your knowledge and tips!
I bought monstera Thai constellation seed does anyone know the best way to grow them
Could someone tell me how to make her feel healthier is it light water? She is very brownish colored
Can I just split this elephant ear?
This has to be near impossible 😭 anybody know if theres a way to propagate a cutting this short? Leaving it to callous atm (pilea peperomiodies)
If I have little plants like this with roots, do I need to keep the whole leaf attached, or can I trim some off?
My begonia is tall and lanky after loosing lots of leaves. When the leave fall off it starts more but I want to cut it way back and start new ones. When is a goid time to do this. Thanks for any help
best way to propagate a philo? should i just do water?
Just a little encouragement for anyone mulling over chopping and propagating their fiddle leaf fig. I’m so glad I did it! It’s been three months and here is the progress. It looks like it’s going to branch off in 2-3 new directions and has about 6 new leaves with two more ready to pop soon. The prop in the photo I planted last week. The second cutting is still rooting in water. I don’t know if I would root a flf in water again. It got rot twice and I had to restart the woodier cut. After the fact I heard good things about using perlite or air layering, both were suggested a few times.
I propagated this hoya this summer. It had only 2 leaves and I put it directly into soil and now it has 5 leaves and doing great. I got the start from a friend who is 80 and the mother plant is over 40 years old. I'm so glad to get a great start going and hope I do as well as she has with her plant
I don’t know if I’m in the right group but I have a fiddle fig tree and I’ve had her since February 2024 and she has grown 6 leaves which I’m very grateful for but I’ve noticed that she is just a stick. I love how fiddle figs look when they branch out. Is there a way I could make that happen?
I just got this pink princess and I'm not sure if I should keep it in water or plant her. Also what is the best soil for her. As you can see she has a great root. Thanks for any helpr
Could I propagate my Croton? The first picture is when I first got it (March 2024) and the second picture is it recently (January 2025). As you can see, it lost all is foliage over time, no matter how I’ve cared for it. When I repotted it, it had separate bulbs and I replanted 3 of them. 2 died, hence the one remaining. I don’t think it’ll grow its leaves to the way it was, so I’m hoping to propagate. If it’s possible, how would I do it? I’ve never done a propagation. I don’t wanna have to start over and buy a new plant!
Hi, I began to sow cactus seeds but 2 days later, they all grew mold 😭 Anyone know what I did wrong? I had them under a grow light, moistened soil, and covered the top with cling wrap. I also had them on a heated mat
Alocasia wentii, cheers buddy!!
Ok, I bought these cute vases OVER two years ago to use for propagating. These are the first cuttings I put in there!!! They rooted immediately and haven’t grown since. I know the roots are long enough to plant, but I thought I would start seeing new leaf growth. They are just staying their cute little size. Are they just waiting for their new home?
My daughter gifted some clippings for me last year. Who says you have to plant them? Maybe I just need a bigger vase?
