I have a bunch of succulent leaves propagating and a few have started to grow on their own 😊 I’m wondering if I should be misting the soil? I started off misting when I first started the propagations a little over a month ago. But then read I shouldn’t do that until roots grow. So I stopped watering them and have left them alone for a few weeks. I’m also reading to continue to let them be until the “mom leaf” has been soaked out of all its natural water and only water when it’s time to plant the new succulent in its own pot. Any advice? Does it matter? FYI I used rooting hormone on all these and I believe that’s residue still on the fuzzy leaf in the bigger pot (the one that looks like it only has roots and no leaf growth..?)

I bought this plant and the store had it planted in some fake moss. I went to repot it and the whole roots and stem were rotted! I took it apart and now it's all these leaves. Would I be able to propagate these?? And if so how?

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do with this succulent? He’s just growing out of control! Do I cut off the bottom shoots and chop it in half and try to plant those cuttings? Do they need to callus first or just plant them in soil directly? Please send advice. Thanks!

My peperomia got root rot, would I be better propagating the pieces in soil or water? Before and after below, I have been trying them in soil but another leaf went black today

CODE BLUE!!!!! CODE BLUE!!! 🚑🚨 Had these 2 stragglers 🌱🌱in 💦 for 2 weeks now & there’s only one root. She has a few nodes that in the water but I’m seeing any signs of roots. Not sure what the are 🤔 (Google says she’s a Scindapsus 'Mayari) and rare. I’ve seen pictures of them on a moss pole. Thank you for your help 🪴🤗💚

Allow me to hold a prayer circle for these cuttings I found on the ground. We will pray they root well and become a big plant! 😭🙌🏻

My current water props! I have them in water with some light, light fertilizer (7-9-5) and this is after 10 days :) Pictured is: golden pothos, marble queen pothos, and tradescantia zebrina (I think!)

Where do I clip tradescantia legs to grow roots? And how do I grow roots on clippings?

A coworker of mine brought me a little baggie of leafs with roots and they are growing! Problem is, I have no idea what it is. Any help identifying this little propagation?

🌱fiddle leaf fig prop🌱 this is my first time ever propagating a fiddle leaf & i was STRESSEDt (i’ve had this tree since 19/20, im 24 now so im very attached). she’s gotten rather leggy over the years due to beginners underwatering & several moves; i’ve wanted to prop for a while so i started out w the smallest leg of the tree to assure success. in just over a week that little branch has sprouted ab 3-4 little leaves, the cuttings from this(3) have all rooted and budded. i cut another thinner branch providing another 3 cuttings that are in beginning stages of rooting. the cut branch still rooted in the soil has grown two buds in a few days. there’s another branch, uncut, that has a few buds thanks to the redirected nutrients. IM SO EXCITED!!!!!

Update on the Jade propagating: all the cuttings have calloused and I’ve moved all the stem cuttings with leaves to the top of the base plant’s soil so they get plenty of sun and start growing some roots. The smaller branches have received their own tiny pot to start growing roots, and the 2 large stalks all the other cuttings came from are still in the bottles. The current debate: should I plant the cuttings with leaves already with my baby jade that rooted from cuttings of the same base plant I took in May, or give it a separate pot and form a slow-growing jade army? (Last photo is Lucy, my plant from the first set of cuttings. The idea here is if I add the new cuttings to Lucy, they’ll become a bushier plant is less time than if I plant the new jades on their own.)

Why are my satin pothos roots turning black? Is this something I should be concerned about?
