Some of the leaves that fell off my jellybean cactus during shipping have produced offsprings after 2.5 weeks! I feel like a proud grandmother!😍🍼 One leaf was pulled to an upright position by its roots and there was a twin underneath! So cool. Plants are smart!🤣

Plastic bottles make such handy drainage pots on the fly so I like to keep them around just incase also cue tip and hair cream tubs are handy for different shapes pots or when your prop gets a little bigger.

There’s little white bits coming from this node that lost its leaves does anyone know if it’ll grow new leaves or strings? Or if it would be worth pressing into the soil so that it roots?

these props have made it to stage 3 🥲 they have detached from the leaf and now on their own. btw this pot is a condiment cup. i usually take a few when i’m at restaurants and use them for small propagations🤩

🤔Anyone know what this is? I repotted two orchids and this was potted with them. Got it as a gift!

My Callisia Repens variegated put out roots in 2 to 3 days in water and is easy to propagate in soil, as well. 💧🌱🌱🌱

Echeveria leaf growing roots but do we think it’ll actually grow another plant?

I’ve been trying to propagate some aloe Vera for a while now and I followed steps cutting the leaf leaving it to callus for a week before potting in soil but it’s been in soil for some time now and there’s no signs of anything happening. Has anyone propagated aloe from single leaf cutting before ? Does anyone have any tips?

I’ve been propagating several plants in water, and for the most part they’ve been doing fine, but recently several have started rotting at the root tips. Why is this happening? I change out water fairly often.

Update on poddy! Ok so wasn’t sure what was going to happen with this one but it has roots! Leaves are healthy however I’m not sure what will happen past that as it’s showing no signs of leaf growth.

I collected all the Asian poison bulb babies and put them in an empty container just so dog wouldn’t eat them and they finally sprouted! I gave up hope. I am guessing I just plant them now?

This is my first time growing Stefania Erecta. It looks and feels like a flattened round potato. Instructions state to soak the bottom in warm water for 24 hours to get the roots going. I fear soaking the wrong end. The bottom is supposed to be flat with a round circular node. There is no clearly flat end like the ones pictured online. I found a round white circle. Is that the bottom or is the small circular bump at the opposite end the bottom? I’m sending the seller an email to get help. Thought I would ask here.

these propagations have now detached from its leaf. its my first time having props gone this far 😭 so now do i put them all in a pot and water often, or can i just stick them back into the soil without watering and they’ll eventually grow roots ?? please help i have no idea what i’m doing😭

Well, it’s been 24 days since I nervously topped my Dracaena and low and behold! It has two new branches starting! I almost cant believe it. I added some fertilizer today and I’m excited to see what will come of all this. Feeling like a mad scientist! :)

Hello! I’ve had this monstera planted in water for just over a year now and noticed it’s trying to sprout a new leaf! Now I’m tempted to put it in soil but I’m not sure if I should because it’s been in water for so long. Any suggestions?

Is there any way I can propagate this plant?

I have this Chinese Money Plant propagation, but I can’t tell if these are little roots that are growing or something else.. I have this propagation sitting in water, not soil. I change the water at least once a week & I have it about a foot away from the window so it’s getting sunlight but not direct sunlight because I’m scared it’ll scorch. Any ideas?
