# Hey guys, OK so this is my little plant family. These are all five of…

_Posted by Lee on 2025-07-15_

Hey guys, OK so this is my little plant family. These are all five of my plants. I am trying to propagate one of them and I put her in a clear vase with some water. I recently changed the water with rain water. However, when I took her out, I noticed her ends looked like this. Is this normal? I’m still a new plant Mom 💕 so I’m learning as I go. Any tips or recommendations would be greatly appreciated and love this app.

I bought these drops you put them in the water and they really help your plants for root propagation and works really good. Kind of spendy (Amazon) but let me tell you it works because my roots weren’t even started and they start quick.

OK, thanks so much

How long ago did you prop it?

#### Lee replied on 2025-07-15

About four days now

Oh yeah, that’s normal! It’ll eventually harden on the end \& it’ll be alright. You’re doing great, as it looks like you have some roots already growing 😁

#### Mehgan C. replied on 2025-07-15

If you want to, you can take wax \& dip the end into it to seal it off if you’re worried about it rotting or anything. But it looks fine to me

Oh wow I didn’t know that. Thank you so much. I’m gonna keep an eye on it and watch it for a few days. I kinda wanted to propagate naturally. Hopefully the rain water will give it a boost
