Hello! Can I propagate this by cutting and replanting in cactus and succulent soil? I would like to use a small off shoot on the top.

I was gifted this pothos and she was grown mostly in water. I eventually transferred her to soil and she’s been doing fantastic! I would like to separate this top portion and also plant it into the soil to give the little pot she’s in a bit more volume. I’d like some guidance on how best to do that Do I chop and put it in water? Should I wait for some more growth and just wrap her around the pot?

I wish Planta had a “Fair” option for our plant care. Several Of mine are not in Good but Fair condition… Hopefully to improve their health!!!

How do you propagate string of pearls? I have a string of pearls that is mostly dead with one strip of pretty pearls left. I want to try to propagate this section. I have tried before in just water but it did not work. How have yall propagate these???

UPDATE: roots appear to coming in nicely. I added some basil to propagate and will be potting these all shortly! First time propagating my baby spider plants. Looks like I’m seeing roots forming! Should I wait another week or so to add to soil? Any tips are appreciated!

Hi! This is the first time my spider plant has put out these baby plants. When’s a good time to remove and propagate them?

I’m so excited my fiddle fig propagation has taken root. Do you all think I should ADD the new plant to the pot with the parent or give it its own pot??

This is my first time trimming and propagating. I’m open to any advice!

While moving my Peperomia obtusifolia ‘marble’ yesterday, a leaf fell off, and while I know it’s a long shot for growth, I decided why not try to propagate? I got a super old seedling tray my mom had lying around and poked holes in it, poked a couple holes in the top of the lid for air flow, filled it with some succulent soil I had laying around, and planted the leaf! I’ll make sure to update you all, though this certainly might end with the leaf just dying. I know the soil isn’t the best, but I didn’t have any moss or perlite around and I honestly wasn’t going to buy more for a leaf that might not make it 🥲 Any advice for this little one’s future care would be very appreciated! Sorry for the super long post

Hey everyone, first propagation of my monstera plant. How do I know when she’s ready to be repotted into her new home?

A storm came through a few nights ago and damaged several plants, so I decided to propagate my damaged coleus. I’m crossing my fingers that they will grow roots. 🤞

I propagated this sweet potato vine and just planted it outside. Sorry about the soil you may can’t see it but it had no roots I put her in just water and covered with a bag in 2 weeks she sprouted roots. It’s my first ever plant to actually get roots from propagating!

I have a luseana umbrella tree that was becoming leggy and tall, so to encourage side growth, I lopped off the top. Should I keep it like this, or do I need to snap off any branches right below the cut to open up nodes? Thanks! (Yes, I have the top in water!)

Propagating monkey masks! They’ve been in water for about 2 weeks now and are starting to grow. I’m questioning my medium as I know the roots will be very weak when I put it in soil. What’s a good medium to use inbetween water and soil? I heard leca is good?
