Hey I’m quite new at this, I really need some advice. I have a Crassothonna capensis I’ve just propagated, it was in water for 2 weeks growing so fast so I transferred it to soil. I was checking it everyday, on the 3rd day I lifted one of the stems to check it was taking well and noticed thousands of white bugs, I figured out what it was so I cleaned the plant got rid of the soil washed the pots. how do I stop the little white bugs from coming back to eat my new roots should u leave it in the house or will it be the same ???

I have a really healthy Monstera and need to propagate where should I cut it. Have two roots growing off it. Once I cut it, can it be water propagated?

Hi all! If I wanted to propagate these four new growths, how could I do that? This plant is some sort of sempervivum

Has anyone ever gone to a prop swap? If so where was it? If anyone lives in Colorado, that would be really helpful because I need new babies!

I’ve only had my air plant for a couple months but she’s started growing a pup 🥰🥰 is there a specific way to take the baby off when a bit more grown with hurting the mother plant?

I propagated a “wandering dude” plant about two weeks ago straight into soil… it looks like it’s doing okay, but should I repot it and make sure the roots have formed and/or are doing okay? This is my first time propagating anything so sorry if this is a silly question!

Hi everyone! I’ve been propagating this little English ivy for a few weeks but everytime it grows a new leaf it starts to brown…? It’s not in direct sunlight so I don’t believe it’s sun spots but this is the second leaf to start browning and I cannot figure out why!! If anyone has any ideas I would to know 😄 thank you!!

My Lemon Lime is taking a long time to propagate.. I wanna say I cut it like 3 weeks ago. And I still see no roots yet. First photo: the top that I cut off and now have in water. Still no roots yet. Second photo: other half of lemon lime… but nothing is sprouting from the top either.

Hi everyone! I started my first cut flower garden (thanks TikTok) and I noticed the bottom leaves on some sprouts are dying off and the stems are turning brown. What am I doing wrong? I’ve never sowed anything before so this is all new to me. I’m in central Texas if that helps!

Sooo.. What do I do with this? 😅 I put a piece of broccoli in water to see if I could get it to flower and (obviously) there are roots.

Should I just cut off this leaf? It came like that but as you can see it’s still growing and is happy.
