Had so many cuttings from my neon pothos, I'm so pleased with them! Starting to give them away to people now.

Hey y'all, my aloe has a pup that has grown A LOT over the summer, is it ready for its own pot yet or am I being too impatient?

I’ve had these pothos propagating in water for a couple of months now and they’ve both grown one singular root that’s really long. Is that a water root or can I pot these?

I have a very stringy, and small leafed Swiss cheese vine (adansonii). It was gifted to me this way. I love its character but I know the leaves can get much bigger and I’d like to see it get fuller and climb as well. Any tips on exactly how I should repot and propagate this beautiful plant?

These seeds from my Curly Sue Cactus germinated in about 4 days. I put them on a moist paper towel inside a sealed one gallon Ziploc bag to retain moisture. They are ready for starter pots. The black on the paper towel is from leftover bits of soil in the drainage tray that stained the towel. 🪴🍀

This plant had some full seed pods when I got it. I'm good with the extraction (dry, soak, dry, dry), decent with the potting (coir, perlite, vermiculite on top), but the 3-month mark is where I fail at seedlings. Let's see what happens cuz this would be a nice, niche win. Pictured also is my first Gibbaeum dispar. Note how compact it turned - the base is pretty much a mini tree trunk.

My kalanchoe is growing roots way up on the stem randomly. Is it trying to tell me it wants to be cut and replanted at those areas? I had it in the dark for a few days (trying to get it to bloom) then this happened lol

For about a month I’ve been propagating my alocasia frydek corms and it’s looking great! So much growth, especially these last few days, the stems are getting close to the top. Anyone can help out…. how long should I let the roots be before I put it in soil? Or is there another/better technique to let this grow?

I have this White Wizard Philodendron propagation. It has an air root but no roots at the bottom yet. Does anyone know if I should go ahead and plant it or wait for roots to sprout in the water?

Ethics check!!! I was at the grocery store (large chain) and there was a pretty decent sized succulent that had broken off from its base. I debated putting it in my purse bc I know it will just get thrown away but then I got self conscious because it’s right by the entrance door and cameras….. stealing or saving?!?

Does this chop job look right? Im new to this.

I’ve never propagated a plant before, but I accidentally decapitated my pearl & jade pothos! 😭 Do these cuts and glass of water look good? Please help with advice or tips, thanks you! 🙏🪴

Okay so she’s very skimpy. I rescued this girl and I need to get her full. I’ve never propagated this plant before. Any suggestions will help. I don’t want her to die

This (corn?) plant loves this spot and has grown so quickly that it is now officially touching my ceiling 😳 does anybody know if I’m able to propagate it and if so, how? Or any other suggestions that would allow me to keep the plant here other than cutting a hole in my ceiling 😅 TIA!

Hi I’m wanting to ask for advice about propagating some corms i recently found while repotting. I heard fluval is good, however there is an overwhelming amount of different kinds on Amazon, which do you all use or recommend ?

Hey everyone! Have 2 pots with various types of Holiday Cactus clippings I could use some help with! Both pots are indoors but under grow lights 9hrs a day. The one with the arrow pointing to it is the oldest clipping, from almost a year ago. And it hasn’t grown AT ALL! It does have roots, I’ve checked, but no signs of new segments growing at all. No matter what I try, with watering or fertilizing, etc. All the other clippings are from about 4months ago, they haven’t grown either, and the roots are barely there. And no signs of growth on top either. I’m pretty bummed I’ve had no luck with these yet! My grandma (who I got the clippings from) propagated a clipping around the same time the one with the arrow was started(about a year ago). And her plant has grown SO MUCH, like enough to take new clippings from! Any advice to help me jumpstart these would be super appreciated! Thanks!
