So even though I’m pretty good with plants I apparently suck at growing corms they keep rotting on me . What are your best tips for me ? I read up on it before I tried & it seemed so easy one site said they were hard to rot but somehow I keep doing it no matter the method . Ty
Are these healthy plant roots I am very worried rn I just checked on them bc there was rot on the Pothos that was in there with it and I just replaced all the water and stuff earlier this week added indoor fertilizer and powder hormone with some aloe as well now I’m scared again
Experimenting here!
I am trying to propagate a Chinese Evergreen, called Etta Rose, or scientifically speaking, I think it’s an Aglaonema commutation. I found this in my doctor’s office and they were going to get rid of it the next day so I just lopped off a 🦷 no apparent nodes are doing nothing but staying alive with their pretty leaves. The other cutting has a bit of a stem with the leaf attached to it and I think there’s a node above it. Right below that stem there appears to be a little teeny white root poking out of the stem (see picture). I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing. I have rooted philodendrons successfully for years, but this is different, I think. HELP! In the water I have put a drop of organic fertilizer and a drop of something called Fish Guts which is supposed to help rooting. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I would be happier than a pig in doodoo if I could get a plant out of this. She is so pretty. THX in advance.🪴🌺🪴
When you put all the props together for bath day 🧽💦
Hello! I’m trying to propagate my bubble gum plant and some basil. It’s been a week and still no roots. This is my first time. Any tips?
Opinions on changing the water of your props?
hey y’all. my sister just got this propohsgion. when should she put it into soil or should she leave it in the water till more roots develop?
Does this look calloused enough to propagate in water?
my grow light upgrade for my propagations 💪
I would like to prologare this string of buttons, how would I do that? Im planning to move all these plants into their own individual pots here soon, but with how tall this string of buttons is I’d also like to propagate it to have more stems. It’s already growing two new stems at the base on its own, but the main stem is so tall and im hoping I can use propping it to also even put the heights a little.
It’s not quite a seed but i plopped some of my alocasia baroque sword corms into some stratum from a take out container 🫶🏼✨ there’s a small bit of water and i’m keeping it under a grow light. any advice? thank you 🫶🏼
This snake plant has roots so what would be the best way to propagate it? Should I still cut it in a v shape or clean up the roots and stick it in water?
Question — what is the best light for propagating plants? Does it depend on the plant, or the propagation method? I’ve seen some sources say to give it as much light as possible, some say keep it in a shady corner. I have a few plants propagating right now — a peperomia hope (in water), a couple of pothos varieties (in water), jade (in soil), tradescantia (in sphagnum moss). I’m fairly new to propagating and still experimenting with different methods, but I want to give them all the best shot at success!
Hello everyone I’m very new to plants I was gifted a monstera but it had rotting and was told to propagate I “thought” I let it dry for 12 hours or so not sure where to go from here :( any help would be great!🖤
Starting some new seeds today! Hoping it is successful this year. 🌱
I’m propagating jade plants and have repotted them to a larger shallow pot without drainage. It’s been a few months and they haven’t died but they haven’t rooted either and they constantly look dehydrated. What do I do? ☹️☹️
You know what will provide a proper dose of serotonin? Coming home to see your basil seedlings are starting to pop up! This is my first time trying to sow using a plain ole potting mix, and seeds from a packet (previously used “smart garden” kits) Do you have any advice on soil mixes you’ve used that you like, or any recommendations for ratios when mixing your own? Also, would love to hear about your favorite plants to grow from seeds! I plan to sow again soon and would like to experiment with various seeds and setups ^_^
any idea how to propagate a aloe vera plant? she is starting to rot on one of her leaves and i want to propagate her.
Hi everyone! I propagated this umbrella tree cutting & planted it in some soil about a month & a half ago & the roots are already popping out of the bottom of the pot. Should I repot her again? Or leave her for a while? Hopefully this is the right group for this question! 😊
