This is the last living clipping of the 6ft tall rubber plant that lived at my Grandma's front door. It has been months of worry but it finally has roots!!! Any advice for transitioning it into soil would be great! 😭🌱

I would try propagating it/growing it in perlite for a while that way it doesn’t just grow water roots. Then transitioning it to soil might be easier

Thank you so much for this advice! The roots have really taken off in just the last week!
