UPDATE: upon further look at the “root system” the plant fell apart and this was all I was able to salvage so propagation is my only option!

If you have tips on best ways to propagate a string of turtles, PLEASEEEE let me know 😩

Were any of the plants rooted? They all look like fresh cuttings.

Yea, it was. The bag is what I could save for propagation
