# Just repotted some cuttings from water to potting soil, should I keep…

_Publicado por Tabs Plants el 2023-06-22_

Just repotted some cuttings from water to potting soil, should I keep soil wet or let it dry out? Left it under mama plant for now but wonder if I should take them out from the shadow soon?

Thanks in advance 🪴

Where’s the perilite?

#### Geo respondió el 2023-06-22

They probably didnt use it, its not essential for propagating. I didnt use it when i propagated my monstera either

Looks like it was propagated in water, though, looking at that second photo. Monstera do seem to like a well-draining soil - I like to use perlite and orchid bark mixed with regular potting soil for most of my plants.

Just used potting soil after propagating in water, but I will definitely add some next time or repot if they don’t do well in the potting soil
