So excited about this new monstera variegated cutting I got today! I have it in some leca and water to hopefully get those roots growing while avoiding rot from the cutting near the node.

I’ve done mine (adansonii) in water only, and had luck that way. I’ve done sphagnum moss as well, but for other types of plants.

Just rain water I’ve found to work the best 😁
