About a year ago, in a keikei paste accident gone tragically wrong, I accidentally rotted the base node on my monstera albo and ruined the plant. I chopped to prop as soon as I realized, but the nodes were so closely spaced together that I was only able to save the topmost node, and even then I had to cut it down pretty close—that being said, I am certain that there is node there and it's not a zombie leaf! It took a few months to root in perlite, but once it did the roots really thrived. I potted it into an aroid soil last month and the roots have continued to thrive...but there is absolutely no activity on the node. (I did VERY CAREFULLY score it and rub in some keikei paste last week, and made sure to clean off any excess right away to prevent what happened last time.) With all that background info in place: the existing leaf on the cutting has been slowly yellowing from pretty much the moment I chopped it, and at this point it is almost fully yellow and going translucent in spots. Do I just keep letting it yellow? Do I chop the leaf off and cover the node with a humidity dome? It's never had a lot of variegation, but it was the first plant I ever grew from a sprouted node, so it has sentimental value and I don't want to give up on it, but I don't know what I should do at this point to help encourage growth. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

New Hoya baby in my future…I hope!

Hi all, any suggestions on how to propagate this Elephant bush plant? Where do I cut? I know it’s a bit leggy, I plan to change the location for more sunlight. Any suggestions to propagate would be appreciated!

Opinions please: do I snip those forming new leaves so the cutting can focus on roots?

Trying to Propagate this white knight or wizard philodendron after it broke off/ it’s in water now, but how long do I wait until putting it in soil?

I really need to save this guy for sentimental reasons. It was incredibly healthy a month ago, then I repotted it and it fell apart. :( Is this propagation going to work?

When should I pot my pilea? It’s my first time making a cutting instead of just using pups :)

Not exactly propagating, but has anyone else tried keiki paste? I used it on a heartleaf philo with some success then tried on my rubber plants...took forever to see anything. But it worked!

How do y’all think I did here? Just wait for about a month and a half to get roots, changing water weekly, right?

First time succulent keeper here. I started out doing the hard thing and propagating from a few leaves and everyone is doing so well😭 Photo 1: ogre ear- one of my original leaves that I thought was just going to wither and die and she’s doing amazing! Photo 2: crinkle plant- another original that doing fantastic Photo 3: random echeveria leaf I found broken off at a store. No idea what type it is but it’s doing soooo well Photo 4: Crassula springtime that I bought the mother plant at a pet expo recently and when I was potting it, I broke a leaf off. You might not be able to see it but it rooted into the dirt!

Found this lil guy growing next to my Mom’s 50+ year old Jade last week!!! Gave him his own new home, and excited to see him grow strong! My Alexa thinks, based on my description, that it may be 2 or more years old at this point…what do y’all think?

So my spider plant has quite a few babies, some getting decently big, however none of them are growing baby roots so I can’t cut them off and propagate… does anyone know why they aren’t growing roots? I’ve propagated a baby from it that had roots a couple months ago but since then no more with tiny roots :/
