# It's time for some more propagation! The smaller ones I'm planning to…

It's time for some more propagation! The smaller ones I'm planning to root then lay ontop of the soil to fill in the gaps as I picked ones with nodes closer together. The bigger ones I'm planning to just root and plant as normal in the pot.  
About the leaves... I once saw someone grow string of hearts from leaves but I was unsure whether it was fake since I didn't think you could, can you? I had some leaves left over from clearing the stems so I might try it...

leaves will grow roots in high humidity environments i’ve found (mine were rooted in perlite and a perlite/sphagnum blend) i have yet to see new growth though
