I would love to participate!!! Also... We can't use any rooting hormones, right?

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 replied on 2026-02-14

Yay! Great question! Right, no rooting hormone, to try to keep it fair we will all do just straight water 😃

Ooh this sounds fun! So no rooting hormones, but what about SuperThrive (like a vitamin boost)? And are we talking any plant?

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 replied on 2026-02-14

Woohoo!! I would say straight water would be the best so that way it's universal for everybody but any plant will work! 😁

Wouldn’t it be more fair if we all root the same plant? Different plants grow roots at different speeds, especially without root hormone. My pothos took weeks in just water, but my tradescantias take days…..

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 replied on 2026-02-21

Great point!! Thank you so much!! Maybe we should skip tradescantia since they do root pretty quickly and for the future stick with one variety. We will all figure it out together but your feedback is super helpful 💚
