I am planning to propagate my Corn Plant, would you recommend water or soil propagation?

Corn plants are usually better propagated in water because it’s easier to monitor root growth. But soil propagation works too, though it’s slower and less prone to root rot.

I think for a corn plant water would be the best

Are you propagating Dracaena fragrans?

Yes

I prefer to root in soil using a rooting hormone. You can do it either way but I prefer the soil method because you don't have to transfer it to a pot later.

I was leaning more towards soil, from what I’ve read it says it usually produces stronger roots. Do you have any tips on how to keep the soil the right moisture?

### KJM kommenterade den 2025-04-27

Not really. I just use my finger and keep it moist but not soggy.
