I feel you 🥴 I had to repot one of my flowers recently and the only thing I could find was the top of a cake box from Walmart 🤣 so now she’s been just hanging out in there

Incase it makes life easier next time….the jar doesn’t have to be clear. As long as light is hitting the foliage, the roots/nodes/growth points can be in a dark container.

Personally, I 100% prefer clear jars though 😊 I like to be able to see the growth without having to pull it out of the jar all the time.

Yes same I prefer it to be clear so I can see the roots and if the water is dirty or not.
