I attempted to propagate these succulent leaves, but haven't had any success. I let the ends callus over for two days before placing them in soil and lightly misting them, but they seem to be deteriorating. I'm also trying to propagate a stem cutting (shown in the first photo). Today, I moved everything to a different pot. The stem on the right is another propagation from the same plant. Do you have any tips for successfully propagating succulent leaves and stems? In the second photo, the stem on the left is the “mother plant.” She had gotten quite leggy (as you can see in the last photo), so I decided to trim her back. Any advice on helping her recover and stay healthy would be appreciated!

What is the best way to propagate a snake plant? These 3 leaves came out of the pot but are very healthy…

I have some alocasia that I'm planning to transfer to leca but one has a few sprouts growing. Will leca prevent them from sprouting?

Hey all. My peperomia polybotrya has this leaf with two points on it. Does anyone think it would be possible to propagate and get more of this leaf shape? It is the only leaf on my plant like it, so I doubt it would produce more; even in simple leaf or stem propagation. Just thought I'd ask on here before just chopping it off.

Hi plant friends! This succulent grew a little funky, I’m pretty sure I originally had it in a place that didn’t get enough direct sunlight. But I’m wondering if it’s a good idea to try propagating from it. Any advice on the best method?

My Father passed away and we've been gifted so many flowers, I want to know if I can propagate any of these for my garden/house?

Do you think I can propagate these 2 babies or should I leave it be?

Is it time to propagate or should I leave them alone? There is another one this size and one that just sprouted. If so what do I do?

Hello All, I only have only one long string of my Satin Pathos Argyraeus”. I have remove leaves at the base and circled the string around the pot in the dirt. What do I use to pin the stem down. I am currently using paper clips. 😳

Hi - where should I cut?? I’ve got a Dracaena Janet Craig - 3 stalks. It got really tall and started struggling so I lopped the tops off two stalks and they’re sprouting and taking roots nicely. On the 3rd stalk, I’m thinking I want to trim it a lot closer to the base - below the leaf line. But there’s also some aerial roots (?) on there. I’ll probably also subdivide the cutting since it is gonna be big and would probably struggle to stay healthy while growing roots. Where would you comment cutting? Above or below the root thingies?

Hi everyone! I've been propagating African violet leaves in water, and all of them rooted! Here's a picture, do you think it's appropriate to put them in soil now? Thanks! UPD: Growing in water for now, waiting for more robust roots - check out this cute lil pot I found:)

In the winter I started having class plants that are spider plants to be able to give my students a plant at the end of the year. Today I noticed this stem seems to be bending and brown. Will the spiderettes still grow through this? If I have to cut them off would any of them possibly be able to survive? It’s one solid one but I don’t see nodes and 2 just still beginning it seems….

I’ve been propagating these guys (baby sun rose) for a while and I finally got some root growth! The only issue is now the glass is green and covered in algae/slime? I swear this happened overnight but the new root growth makes me think it’s somehow beneficial? I don’t mind the green, but is this something I should worry about and clean? Or can it stay this way and still be healthy for my babies? Thanks for any help!

I’m a desert rat and I’m primarily familiar with cacti and succulents hahaha, but recently I was gifted a beautiful container for propagating, started sticking random plants in there and most of them died, but this one has flourished. I got a plant to propagate once before, but when I transferred it to the pot, it immediately died, so now I’ve just left this bad boy in the propagation tube because I am just too scared. What do I do now? With the last plant I followed Google to a T and I still ended up killing the plant. I would love to get this one potted so that I have space to attempt to propagate more plants.

Okay so this is my first year growing indoors,(well really this last year has been my first year growing most of my plants period, besides the three house plants that I had )so I have a lot of questions I have a sunroom I live in Indiana for the last few years and it's frigid still but I want to start my flowers and veggies indoors my question is I have it pretty humid like in the 70% humidity in there because that's where I keep the humidity loving plants, is that good enough humidity for seedlings? Because I've seen people put like a plastic cover over the container to make it humid, you know what I mean? Also will the Fox farms ocean floor work well for seedlings or should I buy something different? Please and thank you 🙏 and also do you know how I use this Fearleft Myco fungi I just bought to them like how much to use I literally can't find it on the whole entire bag🥴🤷‍♀️🤣

I got this fishbone cactus cutting about a week ago. I let it callus over for about four days, then put it in water. It’s been three days since I put it in water and when I pulled it out to take a look, it has this goo dripping from it. What should I do? Should I leave it alone? Wash it off and try to let it ‘recallus’ for longer? Help!!!

Okay, so I have this wildly grown Chinese evergreen, given to me along with other… interesting… plants, and I want to chop and prop it so that it can be bushier and healthier but I don’t even know where to start… I’ve tried looking up videos but they’re hard to follow when the plant looks so different. I took a cutting and put it in water with some pothos cuttings but the Chinese evergreen cutting has been in water for months and shows no signs of root growth:(. I’m not sure if I need to cut in a different area of the stem or if it needs to be propagated in soil. Or if I should just chop it and let it regrow and not worry about propagating(& if so where would I cut😅). Please send help 😭😭 Btw- yes I know the support system is crazy, that’s how it was given to me. But it needs a lot of work and I don’t think that’s at the top of the list lol (needs new soil, new pot that actually has drainage holes, still has tiny nursery pot thing around roots….) Ik this part doesn’t have anything to do with propagating but just throwing it out there heh.
