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?!?

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!

Monsterra prop help! My monsterra had root rot, so I took off the bad roots and sanitized the others. During my research, I saw it was recommended to take a node (?) in case the plant doesn’t do well after root rot care. I put these in water, but the roots got all mushy. Can I propagate these without roots? Are they too far gone?

Hello! I have this floral design set my grandma bought off the tv back in the 90s and never used lol I was wondering if it could be used for propagating, or are the little bottles too small to be effective for that? I just thought it would be a neat idea lol

So I’ve been trying to propagate my money tree and for some time it’s had these crystal like things since I started propagating it. It hasn’t developed roots yet. Do I need to wife down the crystals or leave it ? it’s not hard crystals, when changing the water some of the crystals come out. HELP😕

I started this prop months ago not thinking anything would go but roots. However I kept it around and it’s finally pregnant!!!!

Hi! I’m wanting to propagate the blue outlined part of miss polka and haven’t ever tried with a begonia before. Am wondering if just cutting along that section of stem works?? Also included a photo of how gorgeous she is!!😁🤭

I’ve had a rough two weeks. Today I thought, “I can’t have all these plants. If something goes wrong I won’t be able to take care of them.” …but then I walk into my plant room and see a new growth point, a bloom, and roots on props I made less than a week ago. I’m flooded with joy and right back in it. 💚
