My first time regretting a chop and prop 🥲 I’m sure it’ll grow and I’ll have two beautiful plants, but I didn’t realize how much I loved this guy being tall and majestic. I feel like I got a dramatic haircut that I don’t like 😭😂 My plant clippers had been missing for almost three weeks and I finally found them. I went over and immediately started the chops I’d been planning without thinking enough 😅
Not technically propagating, but maybe I should be! My jade plant is making aerial roots?! Is this normal?
I’ve been working on these heart leaf babies for a couple weeks. I got them to root in water so I transferred them to soil 2 weeks ago. The leaves are doing good except in is starting to turn yellow. Should I cut it off or let it keep yellowing?
I propagated my Philodendron a few weeks ago and wondering if I will grow back soon. I know it should but it’s been super leggy.
The picture on the right is my mama haworthia. Right next to the mama on the left, you can see a few leaves. Yup, that is (or was) her pup. When examining the pup, I accidentally broke it but it just happened to snap in the perfect spot! I got some succulent soil, added some rooting horomone, and voila! I hope she’ll grow to be big and strong just like her mama! The broken pup will hopefully grow back so I can propagate her again :) Wish these sweet babies luck and hope that they have a long happy life!
🌻🌻🌻 Any sunflower pointers welcome! Friend gave me some sunflower (seedlings) to plant and I just potted them. I’m in sunny Colorado!
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!
Does anyone know how to propagate an orchid?
My Callisia Repens variegated put out roots in 2 to 3 days in water and is easy to propagate in soil, as well. 💧🌱🌱🌱
Starting a new propagation with these three. Wish me luck and any tips to a successful propagation! 😅
Echeveria leaf growing roots but do we think it’ll actually grow another plant?
Mother plant and babies
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?
