Tl;dr is there an optimal time to move new plants from under a grow light to a room with less direct light? I got some pothos cuttings that I planted last month. Right now I’m babying them under a grow light in our kitchen, but I’m wondering if there is an optimal time to move them elsewhere where they won’t be getting 15 hours of direct light. Our apartment gets very little direct sunlight, but my office has an east facing window and I just added some shelves that I’m hoping to relocate some plants to eventually. Two of the pothos cuttings are showing new growth (mostly to replace leaves one of my cats chomped) and another has a new shoot starting. The other two are doing well but not showing and growth up top yet, so I assume still rooting. How long should I wait before moving these guys into my office? Or does it matter?

This is a cutting of my Golden pothos ‘Epipremnum aureum’ is growing so fast i place it in water May/21/2024. I am just wondering when is the best time to plant it in soil?

Has anyone ever successfully grown prickly pear (Opuntia) from seeds from the grocery store (I’m in Canada) Not sure if we would irradiate those and kill their viability?

I got a snake plant that my boyfriend bought for me and unfortunately all the tips of the plant were broken. This is my first attempt at propagating a snake plant and it worked! The roots are tiny but it’s progress. This took around 2 months to grow these.

Any advice on propagating an African Violet. Both my mom and I were unsuccessful when we have tried. Tia

My latest propagating experiment. These are bell pepper seeds from a red bell pepper that I used in a salad. Placed between two paper towels & covered with plastic wrap, kept damp on my drain board. Just moved to a plastic container with soil and lightly tamped down. We shall see what happens.

Help!! I am trying to water propagation. Have tradescantia Nanouk put cuttings in water, rain water, stems rotting-soft. No roots. Don’t usually have any problems with water prop. Thanks

hey! i’ve had this Friendship Moon Valley since the summer and it was doing great! until i forgot to water it for 2 weeks😬. a lot of the leaves died and since then many keep dying but there are a lot of healthy parts of the plant. i was wondering if there are any ways to make it less leggy? can i cut it all and prop the cuttings to get a fuller base?

Potted this tiny Donkeys Tail a few weeks ago. Haven’t noticed any growth. Worried it won’t root. Any thoughts or suggestions?? First time taking a baby and trying to get it to grow.

Okay so I am doing some major rehabilitation on these montsteras, but I’m also not a super experienced plant dad. I had some root rot and had to do some major pruning/cutting roots and I want to know best path forward. There’s some rot in the node? of two of them that I am concerned means I should cut below it? Also there’s obviously not enough roots to support he there leaves of that plant so I need to cut and propagate- suggestions for best path with that? I’m also open to cutting along some of the other ones if there are better spots for cutting? To be clear I have four separate plants at this point in time

Found a decent sized Rosemary bush in the trees behind my house, so I decided to clip a few to propagate. Looking forward to fresh herbs!

👏🏻My son stopped by for Easter and brought me some cuttings! Got a cebu blue pothos a philo micans and a leaf from a tineke rubber plant. 🥰🤞🏻 I gave him a Hoya black margin, a Hoya publicalyx and a silver sprinkles pilea. I love plant swapping! ❤️

I took this cutting from my Philodendron 'Fuzzy Petiole' a couple weeks ago and their roots are developing well. I know it's not quite ready but does anyone have any advice on exactly when/ how I should go about transferring it to soil? I also want to get it on a moss pole eventually. Should I put it straight from the water to the moss pole? It's my first time working with cutting from this plant so any help is appreciated!

Propagating succulents a few of my succulents leaves fell off while i was repotting. they were close to the stem and i was wondering if i could propagate them? if so how and if not should i just toss them🙃

Need some advice on my first ever props! Are these ready for soil? 1. My marble queen has a couple funky fuzzy roots 2. My tradescantia has some short but well branched roots 3. The golden has yet to show any major rooting 😢 Thanks!!!

Hi! I’ve got a variety of plants that I’d like to propagate - namely my pothos, jade, chinese money plant, monstera, etc. Thinking of picking up some sphagnum moss and making a propagation box. Is that the best way to do it for a variety of plants? Does it just vary plant to plant? I’m good at keeping my plants alive but pretty new to propagation so any advice is appreciated!

1 week update: Zinnias are doing great, the Coleus are starting to rise. One sprout of the Dusty Miller, but the Begonias have yet to show. So far, so good.

So many winter props of all stages - SO, SO, many! These are all cuttings, leaves or babies from my bigger plants. I have nurtured them all winter to get to this point. Fingers crossed I get some big growth this summer.

Sadly, one of my succulent arrangements got a fungus, and one burros tail lose all of its leaves [beans :) ]. I'm propagating all of them to see if I can make this little plant family happy again. One of them is already rooting!!! Wish me luck, have a great day 😃
