Hi! I was just wanting to get others thoughts on this string of turtles to see if I need to upgrade pot size and propagate some of it? I’m afraid it’s getting too crowded in this small pot, they seem to be layering up but I also know they have small roots.

Another one of my first props!! She was in two separate jars but today I combined them in a new jar!! They are doing so amazing from the roots to the new growth on the foliage!! I absolutely love them 💜🌱💜!!

One of my very first propagations!! She’s been in smaller jars so I moved her to this bigger jar cuz her roots are growing so big and so strong!! I’m thinking I’ll keep her a water 💧 plant!! I just hope she does as well in this jar as she did the smaller one!! I combined them from the two smaller containers and put them together!! I think they look so beautiful 🤩!!

Hello friends! This is my first ever post so please be patient. One of the people in my friend group trimmed her Pothos, and she is giving away some of the vines for propagation. This will be my first ever Pothos, and I know they’re not hard but I want to do this right. What would be the best way to propagate this? Thank you in advance!

So I told yall my spider plant let out a vine. I know you guys have said it’s gonna give me spider babies. However, it gave me these lil white flowers and also the baby spider plants. I got up today and the white flowers are gone. I’m not sure if they’ll closed or what because there’s no dropping on my floor so where could they have gone 🤔🤔🤔

So quick update on my propagation with my Pilea I started last week. I see roots ( I believe) growing on this one. I did change out the water once.

Such a whirlwind of emotions when propagating and you have to sacrifice some great leafs for the benefit of the plant🙃

I just got a Red King Kong aeonium cluster and it’s been a minute since I got one with minimal rooting. I have her in a ceramic pot with cactus soil. How often should I water to get those roots really popping?

Every time I try to propagate a plant, whether in soil or water, it somehow fails. The cuttings just shrivel up and die. The only exception was my pink variegated micans, and even that plant was barely hanging on at the time. The last time I trimmed my plants, I didn’t even bother trying to propagate them properly. I just tossed the cuttings into a zip-lock bag with some sphagnum moss and left the bag in a corner. I completely forgot about them. When I finally looked again, they were growing roots. What really surprised me was that even the extra cuttings in the bag without any moss had started rooting too. The only moisture they had was whatever was left from when I rinsed them after cutting. At this point I’m convinced my plants either dislike me personally or they only thrive when I leave them alone. 🌿😅

Second attempt at propagating from corms. Last one I let dry out. :( Not this time!! They're already starting to crack open and grow roots.

Is this Rex begonia ready to pot yet? It’s been in water for a few months now and got some pretty long roots but not sure if it’s enough yet. They’re about 5cm long (sorry the photos aren’t showing it that well) and has a few leaves growing now too.

This is my first time successfully propagating a red nerve plant!! Usually these shrivel up in a day or two. I was finally able to do it with a takeout container, sphagnum moss, rooting hormone powder, And daily misting x2 a day. It’s been about a month and these are my precious little roots I worked so hard for!! :3 I’m so happy! I’m hoping to place her in a terrarium once I get bigger roots.

This is the piece I cut off of my rubber plant on January 20th and put it in water to trim the propagate it. It’s been in there the whole time, I change the water about once a week, and last week I added root drops. Anyone know how long it takes for this thing to start growing roots??? The other part of the plant that is still in soil had already has new growth but this one seems to not be doing much of anything. It’s still firm. But also it’s getting these little bumps on the side?!?

I recently made a cross-country move in the middle of the southern ice storm and most of my plants were severely damaged in the process. I’m trying to rehab and save what I can. My money tree lost all of its leaves in the move and now looks like this. I am seeing new buds at the trunk, should I trim off some of the growth above the buds? If so, where should I snip? I don’t see any new buds at the top

Hey, my monstera wasn’t doing so well, so I decided to propagate some cuttings in water. It’s been exactly a month and no roots have grown. I am not confident in them rooting. Should I wait longer? This is my first time doing it, and the plant was young (may not have gotten any nodes) and it is also winter, for any extra info on this. I’m just curious.
