first time propagating succulents! if anyone has any tips and tricks please let me know they would be much appreciated!
Hoping to propagate this monstera plant but Iām a total beginner so hoping for some advice. The leaves seem healthy enough? And it has lived forever! (Grown from a propagation that was gifted to me at least 3 years ago). I just donāt know where to cut and how many spots should be cut to keep this one healthy (seems like there may be more than one spot that needs propagating?) if anybody has any useful links I can use to help me with this even, that would be awesome. TIA!
My succulent propagations have had no change. They have been under a grow light getting about 60ppfd for 3 weeks. I havenāt watered the soil or used rotting hormone of them. This is my first time propagating succulents as I am more into tropical plants. Can anyone give me any tips. Are they maybe not at the correct angle against the soil?
How do I get rid of the brown stuff at the bottom of this test tube. Iāve been changing out the water every 1-2 weeks but there is still this brown stuff, that I donāt know what it is. The root of this Cebu blue cutting is also not white/ pale. Does anyone know the reason for this. Cheers

My little San Marino props just passed 3 months!
Iām trying so hard to be patient with my props š Iāve had no trouble propagating my own cuttings for a while now, so I decided to challenge myself and buy some props of plants that I donāt have. Of course, some of the ones Iām most invested in arenāt doing so hot. The Florida ghost had a great looking aerial, but it turned out to be snapped near the stem, so that was no help. Iāve got most of them in a mix of sphagnum, perlite, and stratum. Maybe I should have gone straight water prop. Itās stressful watching the stems pucker with little to no new root growth. But Iām sure Iām not helping by poking and prodding every 15 minutes š®āšØ Wish me luck
Pls help me identify plant
Hi everyone, I was changing the water out it one of my monstera props and noticed it was brown on some of the roots and I was wondering if everything was okay? Iāve never seen this before so Iām just hoping itās okay?
Can not identify this plant to save my life?! Propagated it on a beach in Georgia! Any ideas??
After six days of propagating the reverse spider plant babies, I am excited to see the roots starting to grow! I would appreciate any advice on how long I should wait before transferring them into soil. Thanks!
Pothos stem prop: 4 wks
String of pearls propagation time :)
The nursery guy let me claw out a few random plants pieces from the nursery grounds. They look so sad and floppy. Any tips on how to keep them alive - soil, light, etc?? I donāt have indoor space - but plenty of light or shade, water or no water, zone 11a
Hi! I was just wondering if since my ghost plant is growing air roots, would it be a good time to try and propagate it? I donāt really like how tall she has gotten and I have been wanting to try and prop her, but after a mishap on my part and her scaring me that she would die, I put the idea on hold. Now Iāve never done this before, so how would I go about propagating her from cutting? Where exactly should I cut? Will the mother plant still live even after all its leaves are gone? So many questions lol
How can I propagate this? It was two plants and now I have a plant and a cutting. Can I propagate it in water?

Started my first philodendron prop today šÆ And hereās some of the other propagations i have going currently. My monstera prop is coming along š
I messed up pretty big! My pink princess has had a hard life⦠She was mailed under the worst conditions Iāve received yet. The first leaf she unfurled came out deformed. An amazing variegated leaf came out next and then we started having soil water retention issues. The leaves formed weird āwater blistersā that would pop and destroy the leaves turning them to mush. I knew something drastic had to be done fast so I switched to PON. This little princess stabilized but then started popping out strange ultra dark, near black, leaves. So imagine me as I see a healthy, normal colored, highly variegated leaf has grown but is stuck inside the stem. I tried to help the leaf out a little and SNAP š this princess seems to have bad luck.. or is it me? Iām fed up with the look of this plant at this point so hereās my first attempt at a couple things. 1. CHOP- I cut at the stem leaving only two good leaves šµ 2. PROP- (a) I took the only healthy leaves from the top cutting and cut them into individual cuttings with their own individual nodes (b) all other nodes were cut individually and put into moss to attempt to propagate them as āwet sticksā I just happened to be propagating a golden pothos which actually helps other plants root in water so I stuck my leaves in there and now only time can tell if Iām destined to have a beautiful princess of my own.
