Hi, I started noticing some white fuzz on my golden Pothos that I’ve been water propagating. What could this be and what should I do. Would it be better to propagate it in perlite?

So my paddy is doing great but she has so many babies! Can I cut and propagate them or are they okay here?

What do I do with her? I accidentally broke this part off the main plant a few weeks ago. She’s doing well in the water and she’s quickly growing new roots. Do I add her back to the main plant? Put her into a new pot? Or leave her in the water a while longer?

Do you guys think I can cut split this in 3 as there are roots coming out of different nodes at this point? If the answer is yes, is it best to do it right before potting time or keep in water before potting?

Perhaps I went a little overboard? 😅🫣🤦🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️ It started by pruning dead leaves…

I was under the impression that gasteria/ox tongue couldn’t be propagated via leaf cutting, but I’ll be darned if that’s not a tiny little root! I’m excited to see if my experiment results in pups eventually! I started with 4 leaves. I initially let them scab over for a week before adding to water. One went mushy, so I took them out, made fresh cuts, and let them scab over for several more weeks (possibly a month). The three have been chilling in water a while now. So far this is the only promising one. I did recently get SuperThrive and have been adding a drop every other water change. So that could be a trick! Has anyone else propped these?

Any advice on what I should be doing, if anything, with these tendrils from my spider plant?

I have some water props going and they are having a very hard time starting any roots! I’m pretty sure the water I’m using isn’t filtered, so should I move to something like distilled or brita water? Also, are there any suggestions about a good rooting hormone/ root starter I could use? Any and all help and suggestions appreciated:)

any tips on how to propagate a pink rubber tree. i’ve done all the usual things and it’s just not growing/ showing any signs of roots. Was water the wrong way?

Best advice for propagating a monstera deliciosas leaf? Have a few that are dragging the ground (before I got a moss pole) and I’m ready to remove them, but I don’t want to waste them! Thank you!

Anyone know how long a golden pothos will take to grow roots once propagated?

Are these ready to be potted in soil? They have been propagating for about 3 weeks now

Hello! I purchased this cutting of a tradescantia blushing bride to propagate and it’s looked fine till I potted it a few days ago. I thought it had a decent root system. Yesterday I noticed the brown spots forming. The newer growth at the top looks good tho. Any ideas? TIA!

I leaf has died on my philodendron prop, I don’t think it was getting enough light because it was hidden by the other leaves I tried to re arrange them a bit and it’s hung on for a while but I woke up this morning to it shrivelled :( Does anyone know if my plant will continue to grow from that point now that that leaf has died? (It was previously growing from two places due to how I propped it)

My 5 ft tall Monstera has gotten outta hand, so I’ve started propagating 4 of her leaves with nodes🥰 I love how you can multiply your plants from starts! So much that I’ve got starts off all of my plants, and it’s becoming a jungle in here😂😂 but I’m in love with my newfound green thumb this year.

I put a leaf of my hahni jade snake plant in water 2-3 months ago. It grew a few roots after maybe 4-6 weeks, but didn’t seem to get any further. Then yesterday I found a tiny pup growing!
