Does anyone have any tips on making your own root growth hormone? I’ve seen a lot of different tips online, but I’d love to hear what has and hasn’t worked for you all. Specifically, I’m working on propagating my jade plant from stem cuttings. Feel free to turn this into a thread sharing your favorite propagation tips too. TIA!

Please help!! I got this miniature rose in a little terracotta pot in late June and replanted her in July. She has been going downhill since the second week of having her— even before replanting!! What am I doing wrong? I water her every time her soil is dry.

Hey guys! I’d like to take some clippings of this plant and propagate them, so she can be fuller, but I’m a little worried about hurting the current growth. Any suggestions on best places to cut and best ways to propagate? I’m also tempted to combine her with a golden pothos in a bigger pot, are there any tips on doing that without killing/hurting her?

I just transferred my monstera from perlite to leca and within 2 weeks it rotted!! They were all healthy white roots in the perlite. What could have happened :(

A couple of weeks ago I inquired if anyone had had any luck propagating pineapple from the top of a grocery store pineapple. I had cleaned one up, used rooting powder and popped it in soil but honestly wasn’t holding my breath.
This morning I checked on it and lo and behold we have new growth coming in!
The good and bad of this little experiment is that I am going to have to clean out my garage to make room for numerous outdoor plants that are currently thriving but have to overwinter somewhere they won’t freeze. I’ve got outdoor succulent pots, and hibiscus plants as well.

Anyone have experience propagating crotons? I have a gold dust. Will it do better if I put a pothos clipping with it?

This is tillia my newest edition! I’m wondering if there’s anything that I need to do other than change the water once a week? And are all of her nodes supposed to be in water? Any advice for the newbie to propagating would be helpful! Thanks!

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..?)

New to propagating, is this ready to be planted?

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
