This is my first time propagating a Monstera deliciosa, and I’m starting to worry that the droopy leaves mean something’s off. It’s currently in distilled water, under a grow light, with some humidity. Any tips on how I can improve the propagation process?

Hi all! This is my first ever prop so this is possibly a stupid question... But since it's my first one I don't know! My little dude just got his first leaf since I nipped him from a ailing plant in a hotel a couple of months ago. I was so excited lol. It's a lovely leaf, everyone is very proud. But why now is this piece here turning yellow? Is that normal? How do I make it stop?

Hey! I have a nice big monstera I’m hoping to propagate because it’s too heave and falling. The problem is I’ve never actually propagated one before…😅 Can anyone help me?? Please!

Hi! This came off of my new plant that I bought earlier. Could I propagate it? If so how? I’m a new plant mom and have no idea what I’m doing lol!

Sorry to be posting basically the same thing again, just had an update. I’ve let the aloe cutting sit out for the last two or three days to callous (I googled it lol), but it’s kind of shriveled up at the end, is this normal? Should I cut the end part with no inside in it now? (The part I’m measuring with my fingers in one of the pictures is how much has gotten shriveled)

I have ZERO luck propagating anything. The water roots die when I put them in soil. Help! Just did golden pothos and now trying to root a heart leaf philodendron that I’m trying to save from root rot. What am I getting wrong here? Should I not go to soil at all? Here’s when I first planted one of them in soil a week ago vs today. Nervous because the color and texture are dulling. No shine on the leaves which is always how the decline starts. .

I realized my split rock mimicry plant was wobbly. Upon looking at it further I saw the base was rotted is there any way to propagate with what I have or is it a lost cause?

Hey I need help! I am trying to propagate this alocasia plant! I’m pretty confident it’s an alocasia because of the leaves however the color is much lighter than I’ve ever seen minty green I’d call it. Anyway I’ve had in water (changing the water every couple of days) but the color seems off on the Ariel root and that one left step. I have had very little success propagating (just a tomato plant which is easy) I want so much for this one to be ok. Any help you can provide id appreciate!!

I’m propping my pepperomia, and I have never done it before. When do I know that it’s ready for repotting? What are the cute little shoots coming out the bottom??

Moon Valley Pilea propagation: I've had this pilea cutting rooting in water for over 3 months now- it's pushed out leaves and seemed fine up until 2 weeks ago, now it's yellowing and drooping!! My guess is that it needs more nutrients (from soil), but I'm not sure how to put it into soil. The roots are really thin and tangled so I don't know how to safely get it in without damage. What should I do????

Hi folks, what's the best thing for me to do with these babies? Shall I take them all off or just the gigantic one? Any advice on removing and planting will be much appreciated!

Hey guys! Can someone tell me how to propagate a variegated string of hearts? I’ve tried SO many times and they all die, thanks so much!💚

String of hearts

Can I propagate these ? They were on the floor of my grocery store?

My last two cuttings failed, so I've started another batch of five on my variegated english oak project. I have two in water, two in soil, and one in sphagnum, with varying thickness and age. As expected, oak is being an absolute pain to prop, but I am more stubborn than the tree. I have two surviving non-variegated saplings from last year, so I'll try grafting on those (not sure whether to do that now or wait till they're a bit bigger.) If anyone has had success with propagating oaks, especially cuttings, I'd appreciate any tips

Just moved two of my Variegated Alocasia macrorrhizo corms from moss to stratum/perlite. Really hoping they adapt well.
