Hi!! Update on my string of pearls propagations!! They have grown roots! Well a few of them! No signs of new growth on the pearls but at least the cuttings have gotten somewhere!

My secret to not get stuck when repotting cactus. Make a plant ice cream cone by gently pouring the plant out into another pot. That is all.

am i the only who sometimes feel guilty proplifting? there was a huge handful of string of pearls on the floor and i picked it up, shoved it in my pockets and 2 seconds later i took them out and put them back 😂😭 did take one string although! just felt like everyone was watching me

So I am using perlite in a jar to propagate my cuttings. How and when do I water bc it will just sit in the bottom of the glass even though they have roots.

Completely new to gardening and wanted to start with Lemongrass, a little stressed about the seeds cause i’ve never done this before, but I hope they come through 💗 Tips and advice are always welcome. I started in the tray covered because that was what was recommended to keep the humidity and heat in, although it’s always like that here

First time attempting to propagate hoping this goes well!

Update on the cactus babies! Around seven have sprouted I think. It’s difficult to tell when they’re brand new if it’s a speck of dirt or actually the beginnings of a cactus 😆

Wanting to chop and prop my Batwing Begonia anyone have experience with these hard stem begonias. I’ve read that it will make it bushier, but I’m scared! She’s my favorite!

i’m propagating a bromeliad pup! the mother plant has always been on the verge of death, but in the middle of awful root rot produced this little guy! i took it from the mother plant and i’m trying to propagate it. the mother bromeliad was the first plant i ever bought, so i’m hoping the pup pulls through :)

I want a few leaves from my jade plant to propagate in another pot (none have fallen off for a while) but the bottom 4 big ones are dropping a lot. Could I pull or cut them off ? Or should I just wait?

Save your wine bottles!!! Dark, tall bottles provide a great propagation container. They protect the roots from the sun and also allow for the roots to grow down.

Hi! Does anyone have experience with crape myrtles? I planted mine as a tiny cutting (like an inch tall) and it rooted and was growing great until recently when it just stopped. And then it started wilting and dropping its lower leaves. I repotted it thinking that might be the problem but I haven’t seen and improvement. It stopped growing a little while after I moved and it’s getting less sun then it was, could that be the problem?

update on my cucumbers!! i’ve been growing them in their separate containers for about a week and a half now, and the one in water is growing much faster than the ones in the dirt. but overall they are doing pretty well! i’m very excited! they smell good too

Has anyone succeeded in using the notching method to promote branch growth on their rubber tree? And if so, how long till you started to see any signs that it worked?

Trying to propagate some of these succulent leaves. About half have been in here for over a month… the other half I put in within the last week. I haven’t been watering them at all and yesterday I put them out in the hot sun for half the day. That’s when most turned brown… I read that drying them out first can work… Any advice? Are these ok? How do I get more consistent prop success? Thanks!!!

I’ve been propagating a Chinese evergreen in water. Two nodes have started growing roots and easily broken when I went to change water. Any insights? Am I doing something wrong? Are they generally weak roots? I’ve considered grabbing some rooting hormone and finishing the process that way.

I’m thinking about giving one of my fiddle leaf’s the chop and prop treatment. I’ve never done this with a FLF before; would I prop the top cut in water? Water is what I usually put my props in.

I’ve decided only to do water and pearl propagation. Here they are now. (I know it is so dirty) 😥😥
