Hey plants friends .. Any advice on propagation from a birds of paradise stem cutting?? My bird of paradise last sprout is huge and it bent over before the leaf could even reveal itself so I was thinking can I jus cut the stem and start a new plant ?

My first black velvet micans almost died. It got root rot in bad soil because I didn’t transplant it for a couple of weeks. This slimy rotten root part slid right off the new roots after they started growing. Water and root hormone used.

Why didn’t my Ivy cuttings grow? The mother plant was really healthy. Other cuttings have grown quite well here. I added root boost to the water as instructed. I’m certain that I grew Ivy’s from cuttings from my mom’s plants when I was a kid. These have been not growing for about 10 days and yesterday I cut the bottom parts off because they were getting rotten and I put the leaf stem apex in the water instead. Will that work? Any words of advice?

I rescued this poor jade plant from a local antique store but it's my first jade plant! Any tips to help her thrive? She was definitely thirsty so I watered her and got her in a Chucky soil under my grow light. She has a few small roots and some new growth at the very top Thoughts?

I always forget the before picture, I’m so eager to get started. I rescued this Aloe from my mother’s house about 6 months ago and it was almost gone. Now I’m ready to repot and re-home 9 new starts. I’ll take one of the small ones to mother in her assisted living facility, to put in her windowsill.

I went to my bestie’s house for “dinner” but really it was just to get some cuttings. She gave me so many, I had to get a whole new shelf for my plants and create a propagation station. I’m obsessed! 😍🪴

What should I do? I was thinking of cutting up the top and then placing in the soil to make it bushier but I am new to this. Suggestions please! I think its a mini zen plant ?? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hey everyone!! I successfully propagated a trim from my mother plant and I want to add it in to make it look more full, is there a trick to do it without causing damage. I’ve never propagated anything before.

Hi all. I propagated golden pothos. Had 3 separate babies and they had all grown nice roots of > 1 inch each. I placed them in soil, initially in a 3 inch plastic pot but then I moved them to a chobani container (holes in the bottom of course) as I felt the pot was too big. The leaves are yellowing and look like they are fainted. What did I do wrong? Should I place them in water again to try save them?

Trying to see if I can develop some propagations from my mother’s spider plant. The original plant was overrun with baby props so we’ll see how many will survive and become my new little spiders. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤩

🌵🐰 Propagating these bunny cactus pads without sacrificing my fingers to the spike gods 😂🌵 Any tips for the best way to handle and propagate them without getting covered in tiny spikes? And I need your advice… once they’ve callused over, would you plant them straight into soil, or is it better to start them in water first? 🌱💧 What’s worked best for you? I’d love to hear your tips! 👇✨

can i get some advice please 🙏 it's my first real venture into propagating (i've successfully propped a pilea so far) and i'm trying to prop my rubber plant and my string of hearts for my rubber plant, ive seen no progress whatsoever in over 2 weeks and there are these white spots (are they roots? it is an infection? i have 0 idea) for my string of hearts, do they develop secondary roots or is this how they grow? i've been propping this one for about a month now and this is the progress any advice would be very much appreciated as i'm new to this and not sure if it doing it all right 😅 both are under grow lights and in an ikea cabinet
