# hello everyone! my first post here! just wondering what i can do with…

_Geplaatst door Poppy op 2025-07-11_

hello everyone! my first post here!

just wondering what i can do with this little plantlette that my dieffenbachia Disco Mike has produced? shall i separate it and grow it by itself? or shall i leave it where it is? i worry that it’ll overcrowd where Disco Miles leaves already are and will continue to grow.

Any thoughts or advice is appreciated!

you can absolutely separate it! be careful not to damage the bulb when you do, but because it's already established a lead you should be good to separate

I would not separate it. These guys are drama queens, not like Peacelily drama queens but still drama queens. It looks good and getting fuller so i would leave it alone..

to be fair disco mike is the most resilient of all of my plants. i’m so scared to repot (if i ever actually do) because he’s just such an icon at survival

If it were me, I would leave them together, to get a fuller pot. Also because I really don’t need dupe plants, but that’s just me \& my collection. 😅

Or you could gift/sell the bebeh!
